Teaser Tuesday (Sept 25th)

Welcome to my blog, and this week's edition of Teaser Tuesday. Teaser Tuesday is hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. It's a day late but anyway...

Rules:

• 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!

My teaser comes from Jules Verne's "A Journey to the 

Centre of the Earth"

"I wholly forgot who I was, and where I was. I became intoxicated with a sense of lofty sublimity, without thought of the abysses into which my daring was soon about to plunge me."

What are you reading?

Do you have any teasers worth sharing?

"Set down your gun and radio...or I'll put my knee through this painting."

Transporter

Recently during a stay at a hotel I came across the movie entitled "Transporter 2" on the movie channel.

Unfortunately we had to check-out at the same time. So much was I enjoying Transporter 2 that we went to a shopping mall immediately to find the DVD. At the third shop we found it, went home, and watched both Transporter 1 and 2.

I absolutely loved it! Transporter is all about a guy who transports packages or people for large sums of money. He gets into all sorts of trouble and in these action-packed movies, he fights his way out of trouble, from beginning to end.

There is a lot of shooting, explosions and fight scenes. This is the type of movie I love. I could watch movies all day like this.

It's very similar to the type of books I like to read. All-action page turners like Dan Brown's works.

If you've not seen it yet, go and watch Transporter 1 and Transporter 2 . . . Now I'm off to find Transporter 3!

Off the boil

I must admit I've gone off the boil about Dan Brown.

Don't get me wrong, I haven't gone 'off' Dan Brown or his work. I just haven't picked up one of his books for a long time.

I guess I'm just eagerly, or impatiently, waiting for his next step, his next book, whatever it may be about. But I understand writing a novel of that quality is not a speedy process. Not with all the research that has to take place first.

Does anyone have any 'heads up' about any book that Dan Brown may be working on at the moment? I'd love to hear about it!
