- Grab your current read.
- Let the book fall open to a random page.
- Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
- You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
- Please avoid spoilers!
"Even if I were in prison, and this was the only thing on my wall, I wouldn't waste my time with it. I'd look at my feet or at my mattress or whatever, but not this, no way."

lol- Great teaser. That's too funny.
I have got to read somthing by Sedaris. This is really funny.
That's a great teaser!
See, I read little snippets of Sedaris and laugh, I hear him on This American Life and laugh, I read his books and...don't really laugh. Maybe I just need to try him on an audiobook?
