Teaser Tuesday Nov. 25

By -

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

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 is from Orphan Train: A Novel by Christina Baker Kline

"They call this an orphan train, children, and you are lucky to be on it. You are leaving behind a place full of ignorance, poverty, and vice for the nobility of country life."

    I hope where they are headed is better than what they left. Can't help but think they might not be that lucky.

    Yikes. Those trains were not always all they were cracked up to be, from what I remember about history. Sounds like an interesting start though. Happy reading!!

    I absolutely loved this book, especially since those orphan trains really did exist. I hope you're enjoying the story as much as I did.
