Teaser Tuesday: No. 3

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 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!
This last weekend, I've absolutely been devouring the Hunger Games Series by Suzanne Collins. I'm on Mockingjay right now and made the mistake of reading some spoilers on a wiki, so it's coming along slower than the others because I somehow have less impetus to find out what comes next. Also, I think this one is coming slower because it's the last book in a trilogy, which I always regret. I miss a trilogy when it's over. It's like a series, but ends too soon.  So, this week's teaser is from Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins (11%, Location 570-80).

I want to glare at them, but I feel it would be a mistake to turn my attention from Coin. I can see her tallying the cost of my ultimatum, weighing it against my possible worth.
If you've read the series, do let me know what you thought of it. I've reviewed both The Hunger Games and Catching Fire, and will get up a review for this one as soon as I'm done with it. I hope you're having a great Teaser Tuesday. Please take a moment to say hello, I always enjoy meeting new people and saying hello to those I already know!

    I loved this series and DEVOURED the first two. I liked Mockingjay just a bit less, but still ... well worth the read. Thanks for sharing your teaser!

    Great teaser! You make me want to re-read THG even more now! I think with MOCKINGJAY, people either love it or hate it. I am on the "love" side. It worked perfectly for me and was exactly what I was expecting b/c it was so...realistic and not fantasized. :)

    Hi, Kristyn. Thanks for visiting and becoming a follower. I am following you back now. :) Also, you definitely should get your hands on Die for Me soon. It's shaping up to be one of my faves for the year.

    I just finished Mockingjay last week. I really liked the book as a whole, though I was disappointed in the ending. It felt a bit like a cop-out. I have a review up on my blog (free of spoilers), if you want to find out more about it. Happy reading!
