Teaser Tuesday

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Miz B of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) random 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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

"Mr. Churchill would do well to remember that wars were not won by bullets alone, and reward those who managed to sustain beauty when the world was being blasted into ugly pieces around them.  The Churchill Medal for the Maintenance of Beauty in England had a lovely ring to it, Saffy thought."
