  • A theme will be posted each week (on Thursday’s)

*Link back to Reading Between the Pages

And this week's theme is Mirror.  Here is mine from The Anatomy of Death by Felicity Young (p. 191):


Dody glanced at her reflection in the hall mirror. "Oh, what a mess, I see what you mean." It wasn't the flying tendrils of hair--they were fairly normal after a busy day at the hospital--it was the red-rimmed eyes betraying her tearful journey home from Olivia's flat.

I wonder why all the tears?

Mirrors always show our flaws, I want a mirror that doesn't show all my wrinkles.
