Teaser Tuesdays
is a weekly bookish meme,
hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.
Today, my Teasers are from
Click on the book cover to know more about it
And if you would like to review this historical fiction,
there is still one spot available!
Bonaparte:
What caused the Revolution? Vanity. What will bring it to an end? Vanity again. It is with rattles that one draws men. I would never say that before a tribunal, but between us it can be said. Ten years of revolution have not changed the French. They still want glory, distinctions, and rewards. p.88
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 & author, too,
so that other TT participants can add the book
to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Good Teaser I don’t know much about Napoleon but it does seem from your TT the French didn’t change, as a nation, for many years! 🙂 Here is my Tuesday Teaser

We all want a bit of that, but it’s hardly a reason to wage war on the rest of the world.
Great teaser. Mine is here

A pity he was fighting for the wrong side 😆 Funnily enough, you hear inspirational quotes from Napoleon than you do from Wellington

It’s been a while since I’ve read historical fiction, but this sounds like a good story. I’ll add it to my TBR list.
My Teaser today is from THE FUNERAL DRESS.
