Lightning by Dean Koontz

Pages this week: 130

Pages this semester: 290

Sentences

1. Disoriented by the blazing sky, thunder, wind, and billowing white curtains of the storm, Markwell abruptly felt drunk for the first time that night.

2. As he stared in awe and fear at the freakish celestial display, another jagged crack opened in the heavens

3. She closed to within two steps of the new stranger before she realized that the disharmony between him and the bright, warm summer day was not solely a result of his black clothing; wintry darkness was an integral part of the man himself; a coldness seemed to come from within him, as if he had been born to dwell in the polar regions or in the high caves of ice-bound mountains.

All these sentences were during pretty intense moments of the book. All three are also very descriptive of the scene that's going on and that is why I liked these.
