Tuesday Intro/Teaser

First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros is a weekly meme hosted by Diane at Bibliophile by the Sea every Tuesday. To participate share the opening paragraph or two of a book you've decided to read based on that paragraph. Please feel free to join in, First Chapter~First Paragraph~Tuesday Intros.


"I sat in the back pew and watched the only woman I would ever love marry another man. Natalie wore white, of course, looking extra mock-me-forever gorgeous. There has always been both a fragility and quiet strength to her beauty, and up there, Natalie looked ethereal, almost otherworldly. She bit down on her lower lip. I flashed back to those lazy mornings when we would make love and then she'd throw on my blue dress shirt and we'd head downstairs. We would sit in the breakfast nook and read the paper and eventually she'd take out her pad and start sketching. As she drew me, she would bite down on her lip just like this."

Six Years by Harlan Coben









Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of  Should Be Reading.



Would you keep reading?  This book has been sitting way too long on my stack. I am looking forward to reading this stand alone by Harlan Coben.

One of the reasons I love Harlan Coben---he pulls you in with his style of writing. Isn't that paragraph so intriguing? I read this book earlier this year, worthwhile and recommended.

Nothing like unrequited love to rip out your heart and then shred it to pieces with paper cuts from pages turned! Definitely keep reading!
