Teaser Tuesday is a meme hosted by Should Be Reading. It’s super easy: open your current read to a random page and share two sentences from that page – but make sure you don’t spoil the book!
My current read is The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. I opened it to a random page – 273 – and this is the quote I want to tease you with (it continues onto page 274):
“Manipulation. I called it magic when I was younger. It took me quite some time to break the habit, though my father never cared for the term. He’d call it enchanting, or forcibly manipulating the universe when he was not in the mood for brevity.”
I like that, “forcibly manipulating the universe”. That’s an interesting way to phrase that. I’m enjoying this read so far. I’m about 100 pages in, but I’m moving through it pretty quickly.

I recently read an excellent review on this novel; I have it on my TBR. Great teaser! Thanks for sharing 😉

I’ve heard a lot of good things about The Night Circus, so I had to give it a try!
Thanks for stopping by. Heading to check out yours now.
When I keep seeing a book appear around the blogs I know I need to check it out. Besides, I can’t resist that cover. LOL
here is my TT – http://fuonlyknew.com/2014/10/14/teaser-tuesdays-85-the-memory-closet/
That was how it was for me too. I had to check it out. The cover is totally awesome, and the color scheme resonates throughout the book, which is cool.
I keep veering toward this every time I see it at the library because of the cover. After reading your post I think I need to check it out finally!
The cover is GORGEOUS. The writing so far is very visual as well and uses the same colors as the cover, so it’s really cool.
Thanks for stopping by!
