Today's Read: Mr. Darcy's Little Sister by C. Allyn Pierson

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.
During the week that her brother and his wife were gone, Georgiana was again prey to her nervous fears that Elizabeth would be disappointed in her and that she would be a dismal failure during her coming-out Season. The day of their expected return found her chewing her lip pensively and staring out of the drawing-room window into the private little walled garden of Ashbourne House. (p. 65)

  1. I haven't read any of these sequel type books, mainly because I haven't read the actual books yet!


    My teaser is The King of Attolia - a book I am very excited about reading this week!

  7. Sounds like she's not enjoying her debut at all. But at least she's got that private walled garden to admire - I'd love to have that, myself. Lovely teaser!
