books!

IN TWO AND A HALF HOURS I WILL BE WATCHING THE HARRY POTTER MOVIE. AAAAHHHHHH!!!

I wanted to bitch about work, but I've since forgotten what I wanted to go RAWR about. Therefore it can't have been too bad.

So a meme that I took from [livejournal.com profile] silver_youko

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 participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!


In typical fashion, I have 2 current reads. So have 2 samples!

ONE
"The slidefield poured itself at what looked like a blank silvery wall a hundred feet sheer. Dairine threw her arms up to protect herself and succeeded only in bashing her face with the computer; the wall burst like a thin flat cloud against her face, harmless, and they were through."
From High Wizardry by Diane Duane. Third in the Young Wizards series.

TWO
"I once heard a psychiatrist type say on TV that people need to feel they're of some value to go on living, and I think there's something to that. It wouldn't be easy to keep going if you thought you were of no use to anyone."
From In the Miso Soup by Ryu Murakami. book that takes place in the sex industry of Japan and features some murder and a creepy American. :D
