Diane at Bibliophile By the Sea says -
"Every Tuesday I host First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros, where I share the first paragraph or (a few) of a book I am reading or thinking about reading soon. Care to join us? "

Thank you , Diane, thinking I will ...
Here's one book that's on my Austen in August
to be read stack.

"EMMA WOODHOUSE, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence;
and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her."
EMMA by Jane Austen

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!
*
Just do the following:
• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share 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!

Soooo - I thought I would tease you with ...

"Well, sir, if things are real, they're there all the time."
"Are they?" said the Professor; and Peter did not know quite
what to say."
