"I was getting real damn tired of sand in my mouth again. I lifted myself up on bruised elbows and spat out a gob of grit, the familiar scrape of dust and wind swirling around me. The sun beat down relentlessly on us, the heat familiar and unforgiving. I'd grown too accustomed to clouds and the temperate weather in the weeks we'd traveled west, and now the light reflecting off the dunes was blinding even to me, a stark reminder that I’d been gone far longer than I expected to be. I staggered to my feet, looked around." -The Ever Cruel Kingdom by Rin Chupeco
Well, I am reusing the line from yesterday's Third Sentence Thursday, but I made changes in my reading plans yesterday, so I'm now reading this today! And yeah, it doesn't sound like a fun experience! Must read more! What about you guys? Happy reading!
