This week for Tuesday Teaser, I thought I’d tell you of a book that I feel “addicted,” a book that I am so anxious to get to the end that chores and parenting are at a minimum – American Wife by Curtis Sittenfield.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by Should Be Reading, where you

  • Grab your current read.
  • Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
  • Please avoid spoilers!

This week I flipped to page 359 (which I’ve already read so I know what’s going on)

After the party, I started to page through a magazine, feeling that it would be responsible to know exactly what Megan had seen. I got to a spread of what I suppose was meant to be a “classy” woman: In the first shot, she was emerging from a limousine, wearing a fur coat and heels andnothing else; in the next, she was standing inside some soft of ballroom with her back to the camera, her buttocks on display, looking archly over one shoulder and holding up a flue of champagne.

Wow. That’s a long two sentences, huh?  That second one seemed to just keep going and going.

I will be finishing this book today.  Like I said, it’s been addictive since I started reading it.  Tune in tomorrow for a full review. (note: link will be active tomorrow)
