Theme Thursday comes to us from Kavyen at Reading Between Pages. The name of the game is to select a snippet from whatever book you are reading that corresponds with the week's theme. Be sure to name the author and title of your book. Then, leave a link to your post at the official Theme Thursday post. Easy peasy.
This week's theme is: EMOTION
"Ash," I murmured, which made him flinch, bracing himself. My heart pounded, but I ignored my doubts and hurried on. "I... will..." Closing my eyes, I took a deep breath and whispered, "Will you be my knight?"
He spun, eyes widening for the briefest of moments. For a few heartbeats, he stared at me, surprise and disbelief written across his face. I gazed back, wondering if it had been a mistake to ask, if I had only bound him further and he would resent being forced into another contract.
~from The Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa (p. 128)
Nice one!

ReplyDeletePS: I love your new look.. Clean and desirable.
Thank you both. :) This book is full of good examples, but that one definitely stood out for me. As for the blog, I am loving how it turned out. I only have one thing left that I would like to add to it and then I'll be set.
