This is a new meme hosted by kavyen at Reading between Pages.. “Theme Thursdays” will be open from one thursday to the next and anyone can post it. The rules are simple:
* A theme will be posted each week (on Thursday’s)
* Select a conversation/snippet/sentence from the current book you are reading
* Post it and don’t forget to mention the author and the title of the book
* Since we may take a few days to finish a book, this event is open for one whole week
This will give us a wonderful opportunity to explore and understand different writing styles and descriptive approaches adopted by authors.
This week’s theme is – Atmosphere
This week I'm reading...
This sounded like a hard theme, but I think I came up with something...
Getting to Dr. Dan's house wasn't difficult, especially on a Sunday. There was very little traffic going north through town, and once I was off twenty-four and on the county road there was none. Dr. Dan did not live in a mansion. His lovely, brick ranch-style house sat about two-hundred yards off the road, nestled on forested acreage. Ceiling fans and what looked like track lighting adorned a very long porch. It was nicely decorated for Christmas with fake icicle lights and a stuffed Santa sitting in a rocking chair.
This was a nice one. Your post gives on a nice, cozy atmosphere...
ReplyDeleteI can get a real picture in my head of what's going on. Good one.
