Teaser Tuesday (3)


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!

So right now I'm still reading Glow. My reading life has been really, really slow this week, with the exception of Inside Scientology (it's really good, if you like non-fiction). Glow comes out September 27th and is by Amy Kathleen Ryan.

From page 17...

"The people who designed the mission chose the crews for each ship on the basis of values, for group cohesion. So we ended up with one secular ship, one religious."

This really seems to be the main basis of the story, and it's really... Well, you read it and see. I'm not completely done yet and I do plan on finishing it, but let's just say that the logic in Glow so far has been very flawed.

So what are you reading today? What do you want to tease me with? LOL.

  1. that may have been a good thing. lol. I just recognized that the O in GLOW book cover has a pic in it, i don't know, I thought is was some abstract figure. I truly don't understand how i thought that, lmbo.

    Well, it's logical, except there are clearly religious people on the secular ship, and the religious ship are caricatures of the religious. It's strange...

  3. I think one of the questions asked in the book is why there are a couple of religious families on the secular ship, it's part of the "mystery(?)" of what's going on. And as for the religious ship... well, maybe it'll be clearer once you finish.
