Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm. If you want to join in grab your current read, flick to a random page, select two sentences (without spoilers) and share them in a blog post or in the comments of A Daily Rhythm.
This week I’m reading the second book in Patrick Ness’s Chaos Walking series, The Ask and the Answer. Really enjoying this series, the writing style is so unique and draws you into the world and the story. It’s a world where you can hear the thoughts of the animals so I was very tempted to go with a couple of those sentences (which do make me laugh) but decided on the following teaser.
I burn with the stupidity of how easy they trapped me, how easy it was to use her against me. I burn with the shame of crying at the beating (shut up). I burn with the ache of being taken from her again, the ache of her promise to me, the ache of not knowing what’s going to happen to her now.

I managed to get copies of both from the library which was quite handy. Not so great for the commute but I am enjoying it.

This sounds too scary for me; I’m a wimp! I’m going to look into it because I like the teaser but I’m not sure about it. My intro/teaser is from the Alex Rider series, a spy teen read by author Anthony Horowitz: http://wp.me/p4DMf0-17E

It’s actually supposed to be YA so shouldn’t be too scary but have to admit there is the odd gory bit 🙂

I’m concerned more about the idea of revenge that’s eating away at this character. I hope the book shows it to be a bad idea.

He’s actually one of the most innocent and non violent characters of the book so despite what these sentences suggest he’s not really out for retribution.
