Here are the rules: Grab your current read. Open to a random (or not so random) page. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!) Share the title & author, too, so that other Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Wow! Very interesting teaser. Will you review this later on? I might put it in my TBR.
ReplyDeleteI will most definitely review it later and writing the review will be a pleasure- a great book indeed!
ReplyDeleteHee-hee-hee. I can't imagine wanting to make a point enough to release all that energy.
ReplyDeleteLOL that's why I suppose the author added these last words.
