Teaser Tuesday (March 5, 2013)

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

• 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!

 

Teaser #1

Neither Isabella nor Beatrice knew why the portentous feeling prevailed, nor that they danced upon the edge of a world that was about to end and cast Italy into a fifty-year reign of bloody battles fought by foreign invaders.

 

Teaser #2

 The women described in these pages led rich, perilous, densely entwined lives, any of which could fill a biography on its own.
