Currently Week 6


A Northern Light by Jennifer Donnelly
Night by Elie Wiesel
Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier

Pages This Week: 106
Total Pages: 640


Sentences of the Week: 

1. "Nature had come into her own again and, little by, little, in her stealthy, insidious way had encroached upon the drive with long tenacious fingers." Rebecca

2. "At the moment it inspires me, if not with love, at least with confidence." Rebecca

3. "If you've ever heard a cow cry for her calf, you know how it feels to have something beautiful and new put into your hands, to wonder and smile at it, and then have it snatched away." A Northern Light

My favorite sentence this week is sentence number one from Rebecca. I like this sentence because it uses great adjectives to describe nature and a great verb, "encroached", instead of a bland and common verb.
