32 Candles - Ernessa T. Carter (TOURS JULY 19)

PAGE 56:

The popular kids, (like Elise and Corey and the head cheerleader) also rushed, not only because they were caught up in the excitement of the day, but also, I suspected, because they knew what a fine picture they would make as they opened up their invites in front of lesser beings.

    Good one... great sentence structure; I was a cheerleader, a happy one but never mean. Book sounds interesting.

    Yes, like the others, my first thought was "mean girls." I like the excerpt: it paints a picture for us.

    I'm not sure what I think of this one. I don't think I like all those popular types. Thanks for adding one of my blogs to the linky. Have a great day!

    Ah...the teenage years! Not a place I would like to revisit. LOL but this sounds good enough to go there!

    here is my Friday 56 is from Gena Showalter's The Darkest Secret

    Two little girls running, laughing, playing chase, both wearing lovely pink linen robes, flaxen curls streaming behind them. Sisters. Both hearts practically bursting with love.

    Secrets purred in delight.

    The reaction struck Amun as odd. Such an innocent memory, and not what the demon usually favored. Why did the fiend even care about this?

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL NOW AND DVD MARCH 23! RATED F 72 minutes AMAZON An evil sorceress transports the gang back to the age chivalrous knights, spell-casting wizards, and fire-breathing dragons. While there, Shaggy unwittingly pulls out Excalibur from a nearby stone to cut a block of cheese and now no one is sure who the rightful ruler is. The legendary wizard, Merlin, appears and explains that the throne of Camelot must be determined through TRIAL BY COMBAT. Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
