It’s Tuesday, Where Are You? / Teaser Tuesdays

It’s Tuesday, Where Are You?

I’m at the court of Henry VIII, being used by my family as a pawn to further their own ambitions.

The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory.

Teaser Tuesdays TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:

  • Grab your current read.
  • Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) “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!

I drew closer to my father’s horse and put my hand on his gaunlet where it rested on the reins. “If the king asks for me would you tell him that I am very sorry if I offended him?”

From The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory, p. 45.

  1. I loved this when I read it a number of years ago. Not sure that it would stand up to a reread though.

    My teaser is also historical fiction and can be found here

  5. I both enjoyed this book and didn't. I mean, I found it extremely gripping, but at the same things there were things about it that bothered me.
