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.
I’m almost at the end of Monsters of Men, the final part of the Chaos Walking Trilogy, by Patrick Ness so I thought I’d sneak in another teaser from it. The writing takes a little bit of getting used to but it’s definitely worth it. Such a great series. I will be sad when it’s over.
I can tell he forgives me.
He forgives me for all of it, tells me I don’t even need to be forgiven, tells me I did the best I could, that I made mistakes but that’s what makes me human and that it’s not the mistakes I made but how I responded to ’em and I can feel it from him, feel it from his Noise, telling me how I can stop now, how everything’s gonna be all right-

Happy reading everyone.
Blimy… I can see what you mean about getting used to the style. It’s certainly different, isn’t it? And I take it that you’ve really enjoyed this series, by what you’ve said. It’s one I haven’t come across. This is my TT. https://sjhigbee.wordpress.com/2016/02/02/teaser-tuesday-2nd-february/

I tried to persuade my Mum to read and she was horrified by the first page and said “not for me”. It is worth it though.

lol… My mother won’t touch any spec fic with a bargepole:). I’m lucky, though, my husband is also a great fan.

I have a copy of a Patrick Ness book on my kindle, it will be my first reading of his work. Which is guess is surprising, considering how many other books he’s written. This one looks good!

I hadn’t heard of him until a couple of months ago which is terrible to admit. I only came across him as result of a few blog reviews 🙂

I actually have the physical book too which makes a nice change from ebooks. Ebooks are great but I miss covers 🙂

Great teaser! I read the first book and really enjoyed it. I need to read the other two, but will probably end up re-reading THE KNIFE OF NEVER LETTING GO to remember what happened. I’m always said when a book series is over too.

Sounds interesting. I’m wondering what the author means by “his Noise.”
My Tuesday post features GIRL IN HYACINTH BLUE.

I’m not giving much away by this but “Noise” is the term they use for their thoughts & feelings. It’s an interesting world. They can hear what everyone is thinking.
