Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm.
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!
That’s my choice of the day: 
“Gambling is not a vice, it is an expression of our humanness. We gamble – some do it at the gaming table, some do not. You play, you win, you play, you lose. You play. ”
( ~ The Passion by Jeanette Winterson, 1987, Kindle edition)
[Note: I’ve read this book many years ago, and have recently found it back in my bookshelf. Being a novel I *loved* when reading it the first time, I decided to have a go at it again, to see if my judgement somehow would change. It didn’t. It’s a magnificent book by a magnificent writer, with a gorgeous prose and vivid images. It’s together a great exercise in alternate history, a tragedy and one of the best portraits of Venice I have ever found. It’s no fantasy, but magic pervades every page.]
