Theme Thursday: Days of our Lives



Hosted by Reading Between the Pages

Rules
  • A theme will be posted each week (on Thursday’s)
  • Select a conversation/snippet/sentence from the current book you are reading
  • Mention the author and the title of the book along with your post
  • It is important that the theme is conveyed in the sentence (you don’t necessarily need to have the word)
*Link back to Reading Between the Pages

And this week's theme is Day (weekday names, usage of the word day, etc.).


Here's my selection from Timeless by Gail Carriger (p. 21)

Biffy looked up, smile in place, knowing he made a fetching picture. He wore his very best brown suit. True, his cravat was tied more simply than he liked--his new claviger needed training--and his hair was slightly mussed. His hair was always slightly mussed these days despite liberal application of Bond Street's best pomade. One, apparently, had to bear up under such tribulations when one was a werewolf.

  1. I suppose, mussed up hair shouldn't bother a Werewolf! Nice one!

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!
