Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice and Book Beginnings is hosted by Rose City Reader. The idea is to share a sentence or so from the first page and the 56th page of the book you are currently reading!
Book Beginning:
"Tequila and tonic number two," I say, setting the drink on top of a Martina's Casa napkin for the dark, good-looking stranger who'd come in asking for my brother."
Friday 56:
"Don't let the universe decide what it means. Don't let it have that power. And don't let what you want get away from you."
I am currently about 60 pages in to Hard Rules and I am enjoying it but I am not exactly blown away by it yet. But maybe things will pick up soon and I'd really like to know more about "Emily's" background.
