Theme Thursdays is a fun weekly event that will be open from one thursday to the next over at "Reading Between Pages". Anyone can participate in it. The rules are simple:
- 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)
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”
Well I thought I would start up "Theme Thursday" again seeing as I have more time during the week to post almost everyday and this weekly meme is really fun! It gives the readers a chance to see a different side of a book through different themes!
This Weeks Theme: A Female Name - Claire
"I believe you," he said firmly. "I dinna understand it a bit---not yet---but I believe you. Claire, I believe you! Listen to me! There's the truth between us, you and I, and whatever ye tell me, I shall believe it." He gave me a gentle shake. "It doesna matter what it is. You've told me. That's enough for now. Be still, mo duinne. Lay your head and rest. You'll tell me the rest of it later. And I'll believe you."
Outlander by Diana Gabaldon

Wow, I can sense a sincerity in the voice. Claire is lucky to have someone who believes her unconditionally. Your snippet selection is awesome...
ReplyDeleteThanks Kavyen! Jamie Fraser (Star of this weeks Book Boyfriend) is the one speaking to Claire in this snippet and he unconditionally loves her throughout the entire series! He is one of the most romantic characters I have ever read about in an on going series.
