Theme Thursday - Location

Labels:
Theme Thursdays


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 – LOCATION (reference to the location where the story is happening)

This week one of the books I'm reading...




I started the pimpmobile and headed down West Main to the Phantom Coach Road and Mystick Falls, the close-knit community of my birth. The houses stood grander and farther apart than in Mystic's historic district. Here. mature Victorian Ladies dressed in bright paint with wrap around porches, seasonally vibrant flower beds, and lush sprawling lawns.



*Yvonne's note: Don't be scared by "pimpmobile", it's not as bad as it sounds. LOL
