This week, I’m reading The Dead Travel Fast by Deanna Raybourn. I’m half way but I found the first sentence amusing which is what I’m sharing this morning.

“’I am afraid we must settle the problem of what to do with Theodora,’ my brother-in-law said with a weary sigh. He looked past me to where my sister sat stitching placidly on a tiny gown.” (1)
