Get A Taste: Partials


Tara of Basically Books and I often read very different books but sometimes find interesting new books to potentially add to the ever-growing monsters that our TBR piles have morphed into. However, we know that we do not have 100% the same taste and we wanted another way of getting a look at these books...

Do you ever feel like getting a bit of a taster for a book you’ve been thinking of reading but aren’t fully sold on yet? Do you feel like sharing a taster for your current read with the world? Well, here’s your chance.

Each week the random number generator will pick a number between 1 and 100 for books with pages or 1 and 25% for ebooks. We figured that these numbers would keep us out of spoiler territory. Open your book to the specified place and pick a paragraph. Share it with the world!

The numbers for this week are:
Page 36 for books
15% for ebooks

The dust settled, and the air was still. Kira opened her medkit and pulled out her stethoscope - one of the digital models with sound amplification. She thumbed the switch, silently praying that the battery hadn't degraded, and pressed the scope to the rubble.
Pom, pom, pom, pom...
"It's his heartbeat," Kira called out. "He's right under the fallen chimney."

I've actually already finished this book and I really enjoyed it! I'm most definitely looking forward to the sequel. It was kinda cliché, I have to admit, and it had its fair share of problems, but it worked well for me!

Do you want to join in too? Here’s how:
Step 1: Copy and paste the Get A Taste image.
Step 2: Copy and paste our intro or write your own but it must link back to both of our blogs.
Step 3: Find the designated page for the week.
Step 4: Type out a paragraph or so from your book.
Step 5: Post it and share it!
We would appreciate it if you'd leave a comment letting us know where we can find your post. We'll be sure to pop on by and leave a comment!
Thanks and have fun!
