Tuesday Teaser and Trivia

Posted on | March 30, 2010 | 3 Comments

It would seem that my posting has become a little sporadic even though I am back from holiday and recovered from that-was-the-week-that-was. To be fair, this week is my birthday week and I do like to stretch the celebrations out!

A few Christmases ago my boyfriend bought me the Book Lovers Edition of Trivial Pursuit and I thought I could virtually play with my fellow book lovers, or at least ask you a weekly literary question. So here goes (if you win then please treat yourself to a slice of pie/cake/pizza/delete where appropriate)…

From the Classics section:

What Virginia Woolf title character wonders, about her old friendship with Sally Seton: “Had not that, after all, been love”?

Quote a couple of spoiler-free sentences from the book you’re reading to tempt others.

“This house groans in the night, freighted with memories. They are stashed in every cupboard, they lurk in every corner, they gleam in the eyes of the albatross in the attic…”

From The Still Point by Amy Sackville p. 16

What a compelling teaser. Can I say again how envious I am of the fact that you have this?!

I love your teaser! The Still Point is on my TBR list and every snippet I see only makes me more eager to read it.

Re: the trivia question – I just read that bit today! I’m LOVING it and can’t understand why I was scared for so long
