Book Beginnings on Fridays/The Friday 56 - May 22nd

Labels: ,



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'll be reading this one soon....




Beginnings...


Prologue

New Yorkers are good at turning a blind eye. They ignore the subway ranters, the men who walk with pythons twined around their shoulders, anyone who suggests meeting for dinner in Times Square.


From 56% on my Kindle...

She pulled out her phone and typed how to change a diaper into YouTube, clicking on the first video that came up.

    Diaper video. Nice page to flip to. LOL! I also appreciate you're using cats instead of stars. Just sayin'.

    My post this week if interested!

    I like the opening and the teaser, and the title, but still have no clue what the book could be about. :)

    LMAO at the looking up how to change a diaper. Then again, I've been doing that for almost 30 years

    Happy reading and enjoy, as best you can, the long weekend.

    Intriguing! It does have me wondering why she is looking up changing diapers - is it for her baby, or someone else's?

    Here is my Friday Post.

    Stay safe and well!

    Oh this sounds fun and I had to laugh about looking up the How to Change a Diaper on YouTube. How did we survive without the internet?

    My husband uses YouTube a lot to figure out how to do things. I probably should try it. LOL I like that opening too--I imagine New Yorkers are used to it all. I hope you are enjoying the book! Have a great week!
