Teaser Tuesday-March 27

Check out Teaser Tuesdays from Should Be Reading. TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:

Grab your current read.

Let the book fall open to a random page.

Share with us two “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page.

You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

This week my teaser is from The Heretic Queen by Michelle Moran:
Certainly, there were some women, like Iset's grandmother, the prettiest or cleverest, who were kept in the harem closest to Pharoah's palace.  But Malkata's harem could only house so many women, and most were sent to distant palaces where they were forced to spin and weave to survive.

That's a great teaser. Hope the rest of the book is good as well.
