TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly event, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading , where you ‘tease’ others with a little bit from the book you’re currently reading, making them want to read it, too! Feel free to play along! You simply... My teaser: "Seated at his kitchen table, Leo stared at the sheet of paper. Three words were all that remained of the document that had resulted in Suren Moskvin taking his own life: Under torture, Eikhe ." The Secret Speech by Tom Rob Smith I loved his first book, Child 44 .

This weekly event is hosted by J. Kaye of J. Kaye's Book Blog . Post the books you completed the past week, the book/s you're currently reading, and the book/s you hope to finish within the week. I did a bit better this week. By that, I mean I finished what I intended to finish. This is proving to be a good exercise. Now, if I can only get to work on my reviews... Books I finished last week: The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov Up the Down Staircase by Bel Kaufman Currently reading: The Secret Speech by Tom Rob Smith Books I hope to finish this week: The Secret Speech by Tom Rob Smith From Dead to Worse by Charlaine Harris Dead and Gone by Charlaine Harris

Feel free to play along! You simply... My teaser: "I beg your pardon," retorted the stranger quietly, "but to rule, one must have a precise plan worked out for some reasonable period ahead. Allow me to enquire how man can control his own affairs when he is not only incapable of compiling a plan for some laughably short term, such as, say, a thousand years, but cannot even predict what will happen to him tomorrow." The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov

This weekly event is hosted by J. Kaye of J. Kaye's Book Blog . You just post the books you completed the past week, the book/s you're currently reading, and the book/s you hope to finish within the week. I think it's great for keeping track of your reading. Not that I think I'm going to be able to post a lot of books in the completed reading part (I read slow). But it's fun to set goals for the books you want to finish by the current week. So here goes... Books I finished last week: none, unfortunately Currently reading: The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros Books I hope to finish this week: The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov Up the Down Staircase by Bel Kaufman
