The Friday 56


Welcome to Week 178!

Rules:
*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader
(If you have to improvise, that's ok.)
 *Find any sentence, (or few, just don't spoil it) that grab you.
*Post it.
*Add your (url) post below in Linky. Add the post url, not your blog url. It's that simple.

    This must be a good book if you're sticking with it.

    This sounds good and that cover is beautifully simple! I love it.

    I don't think I've read this author, so I'll have to check the book out further.
