Theme Thursday (1)

Theme Thursday is a new meme that I came across on Reading Between Pages...

The rules are simple:

1. A theme will be posted each week (on Thursdays)
2. Select a conversation/snippet/sentence from the current book you are reading
3. Mention the author and the title of the book along with your post
4. It is important that the theme is conveyed in the sentence (you don’t necessarily need to have the word)
Ex: If the theme is KISS; your sentence can have “They kissed so gently” or “Their lips touched each other” or “The smooch was so passionate”
This will give us a wonderful opportunity to explore and understand different writing styles and descriptive approaches adopted by authors.

This week's theme is LOVE.

My entry for this week comes from my current read, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, pg. 314:

"You were very deeply asleep; I didn't miss anything." His eyes gleamed. "The talking came earlier."
I groaned. "What did you hear?"
His gold eyes grew very soft. "You said you loved me."
"You knew that already," I reminded him, ducking my head.
"It was nice to hear, just the same."
I hid my face against his shoulder.
"I love you," I whispered.
"You are my life now," he answered simply.

Last week I finished: nada

This week I'm currently reading:

1. Deadly Sanctuary by Sylvia Nobel. Yes, I'm still plodding away through this one. The only reason I don't totally give up on it is I only have about another 100 pages to go, and I do kinda want to see what happens in regards to the main character's love life. I couldn't care less about the actual mystery.

2. Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. My co-worker loaned all 4 books to me, so I've started reading it. Since I already saw the movie, I'm spoiled for what is happening in the book, but it's still pretty interesting. I'm towards the middle of the book now (chapter 14) and it's starting to get a bit slow. I adore Edward, though, he sounds like a sweetheart.

3. Broken Hearts (Fear Street Super Chiller) by R.L Stine. I decided to read this one now because it takes place around Valentine's day, and I wanted to read a V-Day book. It's a quick read and I should be done with it tonight (started it yesterday.)

I don't normally read more than one book at a time, but seeing as how Deadly Sanctuary is almost putting me to sleep, I needed something to read with it.

Up Next: No idea! I'll definitely read New Moon next whenever I finish Twilight, and then I'll move on to the pile of library books I got last week.

It's Monday, What Are You Reading (7)

Currently Reading: Deadly Sanctuary by Sylvia Nobel (barely making it through it)

Next up: No clue. However...yesterday (during the Super Bowl, I'm not into that all) I watched the movie Twilight on On Demand. I've always said there were two series I'd never get into, the Harry Potter series and the Twilight series. I still have no intention of ever becoming a Pot Head (or whatever they call the Potter fanatics), but I LOVED the Twilight movie. I LOVED the characters of Edward and Bella. Yes, I know I'm so 2000 and LATE, lol. But now I must read the book. So maybe that will be next. We'll see.
