Current Read and Teaser: The Orchid House by Lucinda Rey


I am really enjoying this book. Have any of you read it? Really quite good so far and I am only 30 pages in! Anyway, want a little tease? Thought so. Here you go:

"Julia pulled her car to a stop in front of the crumbling stone steps that led up to the main entrance of Wharton Park. The house was dark, with the magnificent oak front door ominously closed." page 181, paperback.
Happy Tuesday!


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:


  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page (I am usually not so random)
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

    Lots of foreboding in your teaser. I'll bet Julia is reluctant to go inside.
    My teaser is from A DIFFERENT KIND OF FOREVER: Sandy's Teaser

    I was offered this novel for review but had too many existing review commitments to accept another at the time - what a shame, looks and sounds wonderful - enjoy!
