Third Sentence Thursday: Post-BEA (#27) ~ Sniffly Kitty's Mostly Books

Grab the Code

Third Sentence Thursday is a weekly meme which is being invaded this week by multiple sentences!

In honor of the fact that I just got back from BEA and that the first box of books I mailed home has arrived, I'm going to be posting 3 third sentences from books in that box that I'm really excited about reading!

1) Take the book you are reading now and post the third sentence
2) Review this sentence anyway you want (funny and silly reviews encouraged)
3) Post a link to your sentence here (in the comments) or if you don't have a blog, just post it in the comments!

"It's what I love." -The Sweetest Thing by Christine Mandelski

That statement is about cakes, and I am already in love with this book because I'm a total sucker for cakes!

"Thick, black hair hung low over his forehead, shadowing his eyes" -The Faerie Ring

Ooh do we have a sexy guy in our story already or perhaps just an ominous villain? Loving the description of this book so I hope to get to reading this soon ^.^

"There the migration splits." -The Dervish House by Ian McDonald

I have to say, that's actually a pretty cryptic third sentence. It's talking about birds and for some reason all the surrounding sentences are ridiculously long but the third one is incredibly short heh~~ Ian has been getting a LOT of accolades for this book so I'm hoping it's good!
