Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a random page
3. Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
4. 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!)
5. Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
This week I'd like to share a bit from The Missing Link, by Bryan Pedas and Brandon Meyers. *Note: These guys have a blog, which you can visit here: A Beer for the Shower.
"Now, Brent Porter was not a brave man. Were this a yeti or a zombie destroying his network, he would have merely hid behind his desk and called security, but this...this was some kind of child-sized mutant, twenty pounds at most. Brent, who had never been in a fight in his life, was pretty sure he could take the little bastard." Kindle, 2% in.
Obviously, I'm not very far in yet, but their humor is a kick and the premise is fascinating. You can get an idea of how you feel about their writing by visiting their blog, linked above.
What are you reading?
May you find your Muse.

And with that, we tramped off the field where the rest of the troops already stood, drinking Starbucks and eating Krispy Kreme donuts. Granted, it wasn't historically accurate, but it sure beat mule meat and hoecake. Kristan Higgins Too Good To Be True pg. 121
Ooo! Humor always makes my list. Thanks for the hint.
Aislinn suspected his disappearance was tied to her.Keenan might not be close with Sorcha, but he'd had centuries of dealing with her.

A Bit Crazy but lots of fun. Making the rounds and saying hello to other ABC- ers. Nice to meet you, and looking forward to spending more time here soon. Your newest follower, Siv
Thanks for the shout out! You have been followed! =)
I've been reading blogs. Lots of blogs. Blogs and more blogs and wait, what was the question? Pretty consumed with the SCADS of challenge related emails. The next book I plan to read is Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Yes, I know, everyone else already has read it. My excuse is that it's not on my beloved Kindle, it's a real book with pages. I'm so spoiled!
