The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Find a quote from page 56.
Check out the links for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Participants don't select their favorite, coolest, or most intellectual books, they just use the one they are currently reading. This is the book I'm reading right now---
Title: Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton
Book Beginnings:
They said the only folks who belonged in Deadshot after dark were the ones who were up to no good. I wasn't up to no good. Then again, I wasn't exactly up to no bad neither.Friday 56:
And everything is as green and alive as this country is dry and dead. The bamboo grows so fast, it might uproot houses someday.Comment: I have never lived in the desert and can't imagine how dusty and dry days must get at the end of summer. This book does a good job taking me to that locale and letting me feel the lack of moisture and the bleak landscape. The quote from page 56 was the best I could find on that page, but it really isn't a good representative of the rest of the book. What do you do when you happen upon an uninspiring page 56?
