I found this cute bookish meme on Book Zombie‘s blog and thought it would be a terrific way to end my evening – essentially I’m just quoting the book I’m currently reading, thus giving you an opportunity to see if it’s of interest to you. Conveniently, when I finish posting this, I’ll be heading off to read said book until bed time. Anyhow, here are the rules for the meme, which is hosted over at Teaser Tuesday, so head over there to link up if you want to play along, too!

• Grab your current read.
• Let the book fall open to a random page.
• Share with us 2 sentences from that page.
• 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!
• Please avoid spoilers!

Here’s my quote:

“…I crawled out of the battle and joined Miss Havisham where she had taken cover behind a display of generously discounted Du Maurier novels.

“Not so easy as it looks, eh, girl?” asked Havisham with a rare smile, holding a lacy white handkerchief to my bleeding nose…”

This is an excerpt from Lost in a Good Book, the second in the Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde – it’s brilliant and I am loving it. And for all you well read bloggers reading this, yes it is that Miss Havisham.
