lurch

1 The wagon suddenly lurched to one side, the horse snorting and neighing as it pulled at the reins.

2 She wouldn’t have believed the screams could get any louder, but they did, and when she saw why, her hearts—or the memory of them—gave a lurch of savage hope.

3 I could feel it lurch as they climbed inside.

4 Then, as if moved by a sudden impulse, he lurched forward and kissed her on the cheek.

5 She grabbed the leg of Nancy’s sweatpants and pulled, and Nancy lurched sideways, and then Jaime pulled the other way, and Nancy lurched to the other side.

6 Moss watched a tall, lanky kid lurch forward and grab for the handhold that was attached to the wall just above Moss’s bike.

7 He lurched sideways, almost crushing the dazed chicken flapping at his feet.

8 Chin high, he staggers across, stumbling on the uneven riverbed, lurching into the hollows, straining against the current.

9 I chose smaller pieces, hoping my weight could control the lurch.

10 With a couple of dozen drunken men at a time lurching across it, the catwalk bucked and heaved and swayed like a tormented snake.

11 He staggered to his feet, lurched to the door, kicking it, battering himself against it with what little strength remained to him.

12 I lurched forward and caught her before she could hit the edge of the table.

13 But the light changed and the tank lurched forward.

14 He climbed aboard, dropped his token in the coin box and lurched to his seat as the bus moved away from the curb.

15 Several of the boys were pushing as well, and with a sudden lurch the bottom of the boat lifted from the mud and moved forward into the water.

16 He terrified all of us, lurching around the tiny room, cursing in Japanese and swinging his bottles wildly.

17 The golem raised his arms, lurched to one side, and completed an awkward cartwheel.

18 In what seemed like no time, a man walked up and climbed onto the horse, flicked its reins, and we lurched into juddering motion.

19 There’s new magic in every sidewalk crack, in the traffic rush, in the lurch of beggars on the corner.

20 The monster pushed against the Argo II. The deck lurched to forty-five degrees.
