    I haven't read anything by Jennifer E. Smith in years, and I actually forgot about this book. It still seems interesting, and I like the quotes.

    Your 56 didn't draw my attention much, but the opening line sure did! I am going to check this out.

    Have a good weekend!

    I love this excerpt, obviously things are going to evolve, lol. Mine is from a fascinating mix of historical novel and fantasy in the Paris world of painters! See entry 16, France Book Tours

    Oh boy, it's been years since I read this one and it's kind of nostalgic to see that snippet now. :)

    After reading your romantic Friday 56 excerpts, that opening doesn't quite fit. LOL I actually quite like it though. I think this sounds like a great read. I hope you are enjoying it.

    I hope you have a great weekend!

    I read a book by Jennifer Smith a few years back and though I liked it I found it a bit too sweet for my taste. How does this one fair? My book this week is titled Kent State

      Honestly, not far enough along to say. It seems like the makings of a 'sweet' read though, which I tend to like sometimes. :-)

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
