Tuesday Teaser

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
  • In a comment, 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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Here's mine:

"At least three sunken Eqyptian cities thougt to be more than two thousand years old have recently been discovered kicking around on the bottom near Alexandria's harbor. When underwater archaeologists began to explore them, they happened upon Napoleon's sunken fleet."

-The Devil's Teeth by Susan Casey, p. 10

  3. Thanks for visiting my blog, ladies!

    I'm really liking the book so far. It's mostly about great white sharks and it's set in the San Francisco Bay area, a place I know well.

    An interesting thing I just read about:
    one great white shark was found to have, in it's stomach, an adult man, in a full set of armor! Ms. Casey didn't specify if this happened in mediaeval times or if it was a modern man in costume, but it scared me, which I think is the point of this book. :-)
