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 and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Now for something a little different than the past few weeks fare. From a nonfiction book about animal behavior:

Now for something a little different than the past few weeks fare. From a nonfiction book about animal behavior:
Despite their high-pitched courtship yodeling, sloths manage to keep their actual sex life on the down-low, making it prone to much mythologizing. There is a persistent rumor on the internet that sloths are so slow that it takes twenty-four hours for them to have sex. This isn't true. As the first person to film wild sloths mating, I can report that sloth sex is a surprisingly fast and athletic affair. The male approaches the female and, after a short display of flamboyant posturing, the deed is done and dusted in a matter of seconds. It appears sex is the only thing sloths do quickly.

The Truth About Animals: Stoned SLoths. Lovelorn Hippos, and Other Tales from the Wild Side of Wildlife by Lucy Cooke is due to be released today, April 17th, 2018 from Basic Books.
