Teaser Tuesday


Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme, hosted byMizB of Should Be Reading and it asks us to...



  • 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!
Here's my teaser this week:


"Thanks for joining us, magepire. What the hell took you so long?"  This from the seven-foot-tall demon standing in the center of my living room. He tapped a hoof on the hardwoods and shot a glare that would make a lesser woman piss her pants.

The Yoga Club - Blog Tour January 4, 2012

The Yoga Club - Cooper Lawrence ( blog tour)


Overview


Chatting it up with bendy WASPs is the last thing on Coco Guthrie’s mind during her 8:30 a.m. yoga class. Having made her fortune as the world-renowned inventor of Butt-B-Gone derriere cream, Coco still doesn’t feel like she belongs among the upper class— until she attends the swankiest Halloween soiree in Greenwich, Connecticut, where three of her fellow morning yogis shared her brilliant idea to appear as Sarah Palin. Soon it’s clear that a love of stretching isn’t all this accidental sorority—which includes a single mom with echolalia, an entertainment reporter who charms the pants off handsome stars, and a drama-prone producer with a taste for drag— have in common.
When the four mischievous Sarahs wander away from the party to sneak a peek at the mayor’s neighboring estate, they are stunned to find him adorned in leather and latex, and rolling up a woman’s body in a Persian rug. To make matters worse, someone has spotted the spying Palins. Someone who threatens to expose their torrid affairs in business and the bedroom. Now the unlikely foursome must use all their wits and wiles to get to the bottom of the kinky crime. But will their budding friendship be strong enough to protect their deepest secrets?

My Thoughts:
This will be kept short and sweet. I had a bit of a rough time getting into the book. I think mostly because it's a perfect beach read and I wasn't in the mood for that kind of book. With that said, I actually enjoyed the book once I settled into it. 
It's a fluffy read where the characters can be outlandishly fun and frivolous and yet maintain a decent story line even if it was a tad predictable.
So if a fluffy, relaxing beach read is what you are looking for. This is a great book to grab and read.

I'm back...

from an unexpected winter blog break. Seems like I lost 3 weeks somewhere and not sure where it has went. With the holidays and my son coming home on leave for 2 weeks of it, then add work and my gym schedule, it seems I have barely had time to breathe let alone get much reading or blogging done at all. However the holidays are over, my boy is back in Florida and my youngest goes back to school tomorrow. With that said I plan on jump starting my 2012 reading and blogging year strong and getting back into the swing of things starting this week.

Happy reading all!!
