Book Beginnings on Fridays/The Friday 56 - May 15th




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 still reading this one, so I'll just post some different teasers than last week....





Beginnings...

This is the second paragraph of the book...

She'd almost succeeded in making a clean break, only feet away from the elevator, when Butch caught her trying to sneak out. "You can't skip your own going-away party," he'd said. "Everybody's waiting. You'll look like an ingrate if you try to duck out."

From 56% on my Kindle...

"I know," she agreed "You didn't even kiss me at the front door. All my fantasies died that night."

  1. I agree, you can't escape your own going away party. Bummer about the kiss.

    Happy reading and happy weekend!

  4. I like the quotes, especially the beginning. It makes me wonder why the character is trying to get away from her own going-away party.
