Teaser Tuesday: Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger


Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

* Grab your current read
* Open to a random page
* Share two "teaser" sentences from that page
* BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! You don't want to ruin the book for others!
* Share the title and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers!

My Teaser:
I'm reading Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger, and despite the many negative reviews, I am enjoying the story so far, and I hope the enjoyment would last until the ending.

“Are you sure we want the room that overlooks the cemetery?  It seems weird, you know; like, if this was a movie, there would be all these zombies or something creeping out of there at night and climbing up the ivy and grabbing us by our hair and turning us into zombies.”

-page 89, Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger

   
 

The Culprit
Nina is busy reading. When she's not too busy with her books, she works as a nurse and gets hit by little boys and girls that she poked with a needle. Her hobbies include reading, sharing great reads with her mother/brother/boyfriend/friends, and practicing how to dodge children's fists.

    I've been wanting to buy a copy of this book because it sounds like something I'd really like for my collection. Haven't been able to afford it yet and can never find it at a really good sale price.

I just have to tell you, ARGH feeds on awesomeness, so if you can, drop him some awesome here, and I promise to give some awesome back :D

Right now, because of my really busy schedule, I'm cutting back on receiving awards. So until further notice, me and ARGH would not be accepting awards. But thank you for thinking of us, we really appreciate it!
