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 – Female Person, Description of a Woman
This week I'm reading...
"Hi, Mom," I said, dropping into the leather chair beside the table that held the phone. I snagged the footstool with one foot and pulled it closer.
"How are you?" she asked.
For all that my mother could be incredibly self-absorbed, she also seemed to have some kind of mother radar that told her when something wasn't right with one of us.
"I'm fine." Because really, I was, except for a sore arm and a dtective who had the idea I may have killed someone.
Good one, Yvonne....
