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!
“And I could just eat those,” he added, looking at a team of carriage horses standing nearby; the horses stamped nervously as though they had heard and understood perfectly well.
“Oh, no, Temeraire, you cannot just eat anything you see on the streets,” Laurence said in alarm.
pg. 48 of His Majesty’s Dragon by Naomi Novik.
PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your 2 ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks!

I think someone was reading this book on another TT a few weeks ago! Must be a good one
HERE is my teaser for this week.
I’ve heard nothing but good things, and I’m enjoying it so far!
I’m assuming that Temeraire is the dragon? If so, I’d be very worried in Laurence’s shoes!
Yup! But he’s quite a clever one, so he picks things up fast, like manners and property.
Sounds like he has a good appetite, lol. Great Teaser! My Teaser for Captivate is here.
Happy reading.

Well, he is a dragon that weighs several tons.
Someone has a hefty appetite!
My Teaser is here.
And he’s only a baby dragon, not even six weeks at that point in the story. They grow so fast!
um.. huh o.0 i like to read this one
Here’s mine
I got this as a freebie and have yet to read it. I hope you enjoy it!
My teaser is here.
What, you can’t just eat anything old thing you pick up off the streets? LOL – great teaser!
My post: Mum’s The Word
I have to add this one to my list. Great teaser.
I was raising my eyebrows about whether the remarks were meant to be metaphorical, and then I saw the title of the book. Good teaser!
Meanwhile, my own is finally up, at Bookishgal.
Great teaser! Stop by and check out my teaser at The Wormhole.
I’ve toyed with reading His Majesty’s Dragon. I like the teaser. Pussreboots.
I love the sound of this book, catchy teaser
I love this book! I’m halfway through the sequel now, but I’m having the same problem I have every summer I’m not working. I have so much free time that I don’t do anything!
