Teaser Tuesday-June 2


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 that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.

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 Two Brothers: One North, One South by David H. Jones:

William and George appraised the situation and dispatched the first courier to report that the 6th Massachusetts Militia Regiment had arrived to a noisy reception. William noted that the Massachusetts militiamen wore long blue coats with gold-fringed epaulets and very distinctive shako type hats with large brass shields on the front.
