This week's question is: Share a random quote from the book you are currently reading.- Suggested by Journey Through Fiction



MY ANSWER: Going to share with you from my read as of now...basically last Friday as at this time I don't know how busy or tired or whatever I'll be at my new job that I start on Monday!


"Jahandar reached for the first page...

And stifled a cry.

It burned his hand.

No matter.

He dragged his sleeve across his fingertips and tried again.

The text was an early form of Chagatai. Translating it would be a painstaking process, even for a man as learned as Jahandar. And especially with such pressing time constraints.

Again, no matter.

His heart thundered as he drew the single candle closer to begin his work.

For his children, he would move mountains.

He would not fail again." p 66-67

Really liking this one so far too!!

  1. Awww, a father's love! I didn't love this book as much as many others did but I certainly loved this scene a lot, being a daddy's girl! It kind of warms my heart to know how her dad would do everything in his power to save her (Even if she didn't need any saving!)
