WoW 100 Words for the Flower Child

Today is a first for me — I am reading an eBook — me, the die-hard lover of books in print. I share 100 words with you from page 2 of  Flower Child by Sheila Deeth:



"...died. I slept and screamed and wept for her, my little girl, and drove my husband to distraction. Then, in a moment's incautious clarity, I was cured. What happened was I found those childhood dreams weren't really so far from the truth, and I don't care if you don't believe me. Mom thinks I'm mad, Uncle Malcolm tries to humor me, and David just pretends not to hear a word I say. But there are more things in heaven and hell than human eyes and ears can tell, and I first stopped crying the day I met my angel, Angela."



As part of the Flower Child Book Tour, I will be posting my book review of this title on October 31st.

I would love to have you join me each week in the blog hop, WoW Weekly 100 Words, sharing exactly 100 words from a book you are currently reading. Add the hop button and link to your blog post and add your post to the linky list provided.

    Sheila, WoW! was my reaction when I read this paragraph and I knew it would be the book excerpt I would choose to share in my WoW 100 blog hop. Powerful and emotive, m'dear one! It is an honor to "break my own rules" with your "Flower Child" being my first eBook reading.
