Theme Thursday: Love


Hosted by Reading Between the Pages

A brand-new meme brought to my attention by Freda's Voice.

RULES:
* 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
* Since we may take a few days to finish a book, this event is open for one whole week

This week's theme, appropriately, is LOVE.

Here's my snippet from Something New by P. G. Wodehouse (p 85-6):

In every man's life there is generally one moment to which in later years he can look back and say, "In this moment I fell in love." Such a moment came to Ashe now....In the almost incredibly brief time which it took the small but sturdy porter to roll a milk-can across the platform and bump it with a clang against other milk-cans similarly treated a moment before, Ashe fell in love.

  6. I've still got your review for this one up in a tab, awaiting a vacancy in my library holds account. :) And can I just say that I hope for another moment like that in my life again someday?

    Here's mine:

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
