2010: Teaser Tuesdays – The Anniversary Man

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!

This isn’t my current read, but it’s the book I have with me today because I need to write my review.  It’s The Anniversary Man by R.J. Ellory. I’m gonna share three sentences instead of two.

About to come back at her with some acidic one-liner, Irving stopped.  He looked at himself. For a moment he really believed he was seeing himself from a distance–what he was thinking, what he was feeling, what he had planned to say to this woman at the other end of a phone line… a woman he barely knew, a woman he actually cared for in some strange and awkward way.
