Today's Read: Angelology by Danielle Trussoni


MizB at Should Be Reading hosts Teaser Tuesdays. Here's how it works: Grab your current read; let the book fall open to a random page; and share 2 “teaser” sentences from that page. For more teasers, click on through to MizB's blog.

The creatures hissed from their rocky cells as we approached, venomous as snakes, their startling blue eyes fixing upon us, their mighty wings beating against the bars of their prison, hundreds of impenitent dark angels tearing at their glowing white robes, crying out for salvation, beseeching us, the emissaries of God, to set them free. (p. 200)

    That one sentence is a real mouthful! Or should I say, an eyeful? I probably wouldn't let them out of their cages, though! =P

    Yikes! Your teaser would have given me nightmares if I read it in the evening (wimpy reader!)

    It's been fun to read your notes on twitter about ANGELOLOGY ... will look for your full review.
