Have some fun writing a creative sentence, working in the title and geographic setting of your current read.

Example: It was a bit shocking when a friend said to me, Maybe You Should Talk To Someone, so I am off to Los Angeles to do just that!

Well, it's been nerve wracking keeping Lady Jane Grey company in the Tower of London. Poor thing, she really is just an Innocent Traitor.

I'm socially distancing with Marcel, who is already really good at "Stay at Home" orders, but will have to tell The Prisoner and the Fugitive she can't go out on her little escapades anymore...

After spending time alongside Ualalapi, a warrior beholden to the last ruler of the Gaza Empire before it was taken over by Portuguese colonial forces at the end of the 19th century and transformed into the modern day Moçambique, I now find myself en route from NYC to Arizona by car alongside the narrator of an unnamed Chicana family, who is compiling a Lost Children Archive of Central American immigrant children who are housed in modern day concentration camps in trump's America.
