This is a fun meme to do hosted by Freda's Voice. If you'd like to join on the fun go to The Friday 56.
Rules:
*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader.
*Find any sentence that grabs you.
*Post it.
*Link it here.
It's that simple.
I'm also joining in Book Beginnings on Friday. It's hosted by Rose City Reader.
I'm about to start reading...
Beginnings...
I slid onto an old piano stool as Daisy Hart placed the fall centerpiece she'd designed on the distressed wood counter in her flower shop, Beautiful Blooms.
"That looks great," I said. "It's exactly what I had in mind."
"When you said something for Oktoberfest," Daisy said, "I wasn't sure whether to go with autumn, beer, or Germany, so I looked it up and incorporated all of them."
"Well, it's perfect."
Friday 56...
From 56% on my Kindle...
"My parents didn't know what to name me and the first thing my mother saw was her paisley scarf she'd worn to the hospital, and she thought that would be a lovely name."
Apart from the opening, just love the cover.
ReplyDeleteThis one sounds fantastic. Thanks for mentioning it.
ReplyDeleteHer naming sounds like Native American families naming children for recent events or sightings. My quotes from Hamilton REvolutionary
