Theme Thursday - Vehicle


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 Thursdays)
* 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
* It is important that the theme is conveyed in the sentence (you don’t necessarily need to have the word)
* 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 isVehicle


"Much chastened and silent with apprehension, Branwyn joined her mother in the travelling carriage, a vehicle that was only a little more graceful than the heavy cart used to transport grain and firewood to and from the villa."

p46 - Prophecy: Clash of Kings by M.K.Hume.

  3. I really love this meme. The snips and sentences I've been reading seem to be so descriptive and "transport" me right into the book. Get it? Transport. ;-)

  5. Sounds like an early coach (and maybe not quite as comfortable). Great one!

  8. A very early coach, Bev, and a pretty uncomfortable ride I would think.

    Welcome to my followers, BookBelle.

    Thanks for dropping by everyone.

    Interesting choice! Traveling must have been so much more uncomfortable in the distant past!
