TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme originally featured at A Daily Rhythm. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)
It’s time for the last Teaser Tuesdays of 2015! I’ve finally picked up my latest TBR jar pick: Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. I’m not too far into the story yet because I haven’t been having a lot of spare time to read, but so far it looks really promising.
My teaser (7%):
“She was well hidden, she knew, under a pile of newspapers and rags. And it was possible that the intruder meant her no harm. Can’t he hear my heartbeat? she thought. And then the footsteps came closer, and she knew what she had to do, and it scared her.”
What are you reading right now?
I loved Neverwhere when I first read it – and now I want to re-read it! Very atmospheric teaser! 😀

I haven’t yet read this one, but it is one I hope to get to. I have enjoyed the books I have read by Gaiman. Each one was very different from the other. I like the teaser you shared quite a bit–I can feel the tension in the moment and am anxious to find out what happens next. Thank you for sharing!

Neverwhere is my fourth Gaiman and like you I really appreciate how diverse his books are. This one is really interesting so far; I’m looking forward to see how it continues!

I loved the other three books I’ve read by him (American Gods, The Graveyard Book and The Ocean At The End Of The Lane), and Neverwhere is definitely just as good so far.
