Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that 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 and author, too, so that other Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers.
Teaser Tuesday #11 – Republic of Thieves
It was an unwelcome thing, to suddenly feel half an inch tall.
Pondering, his thoughts wandered uneasily to his surroundings.
This book is the last one I have on my COYER challenge for November, and I just started it yesterday, so my two quotes are from the very beginning. I’m intrigued already, but kind of scared of this huge 650 pages book at the same time. So far, the writing is good, and I’ve already gotten to meet some characters that I know I’ll remember.
Thanks for stopping by, have a terrific Tuesday and happy reading 🙂
About Linda @ (un)Conventional Bookworms
Linda is an English as foreign language teacher and has a Master's degree in English Language and Literature. She's an avid reader, blogger, compulsive one-clicker and a genre omnivore. Ever since she learnt how to read she has been seen with a book or two in her hands everywhere she goes.
This meme reminded me of an event I joined last April or June wherein the participants are required to share a line of an unread book in their shelf and from that line alone determine whether they’re excited to read the book or not. 😀
Holly molly, 650 pages?! But since you said that the writing is good then it should be nothing. Hahaha. Who knows, you might ask for more? Good luck and congrats again, Lexxie! What an outstanding feat!
Hey Charlotte 🙂 It’s so nice to see your smiling face here!
That meme sounds pretty good, too. And it’s nice to just share some teasers with our fellow bloggers, as well 🙂
Yeah, 650 pages – it will go fast if I enjoy it, but it’s going to be hell if I don’t. I hope you’re doing well, Charlotte! *hugs*
Intriguing tease! Haven’t heard of this one!
Here’s my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower 🙂

Hi Silvia 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
I’m gonna be so impressed when you finish that book today, Lexxie! It does sound intriguing and I can’t wait to hear your thoughts. 🙂 And I have complete and total confidence that you’ll finish it…you’re ‘Super Reader’! LOL
I’m reading a book for a blog tour and then I’ll get started on my final books for COYER. Keep your fingers crossed that I can finish them. 🙂 We actually have this big glowing ball in the sky today…I’d almost forgot what it looked like. 😉 I hope your day is sparkly and wonderful, my friend! *hugs*
Oh, I don’t think I’ll be able to finish Republic of Thieves today, Brandee, but I am enjoying it a lot so far.
Oh, that glowing yellow thing in the sky is so wonderful, isn’t it? Do you still have some snow for it to bounce off of?
Thanks for stopping by, my friend! *hugs3
Great teaser. I keep seeing this series around the net in read alongs and such. I might just have to check it out. 😀
My Teaser
So far, it’s really good, Liesel! Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Clockwork Princes by Cassandra Claire
“He would look so young. They were both so young.”
“She threw the knife. It struck it’s target, and she leaped into the air, clapping her hands, forgetting herself for a moment in the thrill of victory.”
They were both very young 🙂 how are you liking Clockwork Princes? Are you having fun with it?
Thanks for stopping by, Xyra *hugs*
Liking it a lot thus far. Took the laptop to catch up on Internet reading yesterday (over 50 blog posts to read from the weekend), but will read more today.
Sounds great, Xyra 🙂 Wow, 50 blog posts to cath up on – sometimes, reading blogs should add as reading a book 😉
So very true. 🙂
*hugs*
I’ve had my eye on this series. Great teaser!
Thanks Linda 🙂
I have been completely lax in my challenges.. but I have read many books towards them and if time permits, am going to post those reviews and link them all up:)
this teaser sounds intriguing..
I look forward to seeing all your reviews when you get them ready 🙂
So far, I am pretty intrigued. Thanks for stopping by.
Yeah, I hate that shrinkage thing. Very unsettling.
Great teaser.
LOL you do? It depends on exactly what it is that shrinks, I guess 😉
Thanks for stopping by Alice 🙂
I really enjoyed The Republic of Thieves. It is not my favorite of the series, but it is still a good ride.
That’s good to know, Pamela. I’m really enjoying The Republic of Thieves so far, but there is quite a lot of mystery going on in the beginning here 🙂
Thanks for stopping by!
Looks like a fun read! Here’s mine: Cartwheel by Jennifer Dubois
It is really good, Monique 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
I’ve wanted to read The Gentlemen Bastard series for a while after hearing what one of my Goodreads friends had to say about it. Thanks for sharing Lexxie!
I hadn’t heard of this series before, but I really enjoyed the summary when I requested it on Netgalley.
Thanks for stopping by Jeann 🙂
I haven’t seen this book before. It has an interesting cover and you picked some great quotes!!
Thanx for visiting my TT
Naomi @ Nomi’s Paranormal Palace
The story is really good as well, Naomi. The magi are almost more than human, but only almost. And the main characters are great, too.
Thanks for stopping by 🙂
