Teaser Tuesday (19)

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. Anyone can 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 and the author too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers.

My Teaser this week comes from, The Founding by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles, page, 145.

"You will soon forget your home here. Once you are mistress of your own house, you find everything else fades away."

I'm finding some totally new reading possibilities from all you TT participants. BTW, how creative your blog template is--very "atmospheric."

My TT is from A Woman in Berlin . Here's the link: Summit Musings .
