HAPPY FRIDAY! The Friday 56 is brought to you by Tanya and Friends: Rules:
* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of this blog.
*Post a link along with your post back to this blog.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
I actually have two books sitting next to me today, one I'm in the middle of reading and one I haven't started yet:
Blood Promise by Richelle Mead:
Avery was beautiful. Stunning. Lissa was beautiful too, between that gorgeous hair and the jade green eyes that ran in her family. I thought she was a hundred times prettier than Avery, but beside theolder girl, Lissa felt kind of plain.
Okay, the 5th sentence is: Stunning. But really, that's kind of a rip-off! A one-word Friday 56? I don't think so! I've gotta tell you, I'm near the end and this book is great!
And your bonus 56 comes from Julia London's Highland Scandal:
She was flushed, but it had less to do with the gown than the image of him that would not leave her now, no matter how hard she tried to erase it.
Hmmm...sounds interesting!
I haven't gotten into historical romances in a while... but that is enticing!
ReplyDeleteLiturgy of the Hours, Vol. IV -
ReplyDelete"You have received abundantly that indwelling grace which is the Spirit's gift, and for this reason I hope in my own salvation and I give thanks all the more when I see the bountiful fullness of the Lord's Spirit pouring over you." (From the beginning of a letter attributed to Barnabas)
Mine was pretty short this time also so I went ahead and added a couple of lines.

ReplyDeleteShe had claimed her territory. I decided to let the wildcats play, uninterrupted. His warm hand whispered against mine. See you soon.
These are both wonderful!
