Revolution in a Bottle, Tom Szaky"Tom, did you look at the barn before you leased it?"
"Of course I did...Is there something wrong?"
"You could say that. It doesn't have any electricity, for one thing."

I've gotten on a memoir/documentary-esque kick with my reading again (I suppose it would be fair to say that I never got off the last one). This one is written by the founder of Terracycle.
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 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!

Thanks's right, I'm deep in the Potter series, studying the art of writing for my kids. Fun books.
Rosey's is a tough juke joint on the edge of the marsh in an old-fashioned part of Florida. Tourists don't go there, they've got more sense..
from Mama Makes up her Mind (and other dangers of Southern living) by Bailey White, author of Quite a Year for Plums.
Great teaser!
@Tanya: I think I'm up for a HP re-read once the semester is over. It can be my reward! ;)
@Carole: I love the title AND the teaser! I'll have to add that one to the list!
@Eagle: It totally cracked me up! I'm not up to that part of the book yet, so I can't wait to find out what the barn is for.
