Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:Grab your current read. Open to a random page. 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!
The little man carefully removed the red band from his still unlighted cigar. "I never ask you my friend, to bet something you cannot afford. You understand?"
"Then what do I bet?"
"Some small ting you can afford to give away, and if you happen to lose it you would not feel too bad. Right?"
"Such as what?"
"Such as, perhaps, the little finger on your left hand."
