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.I shouldn't have been surprised that New Year's morning. There had been plenty of signs of trouble brewing, of changes to come. Even a sheltered child should have known something was about to snap. Later in life I would think back to that morning and try to link it to earlier events, just to make sense of what had gone wrong with all our lives. p. 8—From Waiting for Snow in Havana by Carlos Eire (Free Press, 2003)

Intriguing teaser. What did go wrong? And what about Havana? Sounds like an interesting read. There's just something about the glamour and decadence of Havana that can draw a reader into the chaos.

This has been sitting on my shelf for a few months. If I think of all the books sitting on my shelf waiting to be read, I might just have an anxiety attack!
