Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.
To play along just do the following:
Beautiful Redemption by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
The Caster world has to be one of my favourite literary worlds. I couldn’t explain why this is the case without writing an essay about it. Suffice to say that I loved this book and feel so glad with all the loose ends neatly tied up. I would have hated it if this had felt rushed or unmotivated, but this is not the case at all. It fits perfectly with the style and the story arc of the rest of the series while completing it’s very own arc as well. I will re-read the series in the near future to appreciate all the foreshadowing and hidden meanings that I’m sure I missed. Overall, I’m sad to see these characters go, but happy for the worthy ending this series received.
Are you by chance reading a last book in a series as well? Or are you starting a brand new one? Share it in the comments.
To 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!
Beautiful Redemption by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl

As Amma used to say, the good thing about the truth is it’s true, and there’s no arguing with the truth. You may not like it, but that doesn’t make it any less true.
-- Chapter 1
If fear is going to stop us, we should concede failure right now.

I haven't read the first book but I am interested after seeing the trailer for the movie.
My teaser
Both teasers are good!
Here's ours from two non-fiction books this time: http://www.ourstack.blogspot.com/2012/11/tuesday-teasers-two-non-fiction-books.html
I like both your teasers, especially the one about "truth." Sounds like a really good series.
My Teaser is from THE SAMURAI'S GARDEN.
Great teasers!
