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:
"The gentleman in black turned down the corridor, and Charlotte Highwood followed. Stealthily, of course. It wouldn't do to let anyone see."
Friday 56:
""I know." His voice was as menacing as an eight year old boy's could be. "I know what you did in the library."
After finishing A Court of Mist and Fury I decided I needed something light and quick and fun to stop me falling into a reading slump and this seemed perfect. I am only a chapter in so far, so I don't know what's happening in the 56 (although it seems like it will be entertaining). Am I the only one by the way, who sings the title to the tune of Do You Want to Build a Snowman? Because I can't stop.
Friday 50/50
This week I'm also taking part in a brand new linkup called 50/50 Friday, which is hosted by Carrie @ The Butterfly Reader and Laura @ Blue Eye Books. I first saw this link-up last week on Lauren @ Always Me's blog. Every week they'll have a new topic featuring two sides of the same coin - this week the topic is Book to the big screen/ Never to the big screen.
The Princess Bride is hands-down my favourite book-to-movie adaptation, I love both the book and the movie and I've rewatched/reread them too many times to accurately count! See this whole post was just another excuse to rave about Six of Crows! But seriously I think this duology would make an amazing couple of movies, with all the action and suspense. Plus I am just not ready to say goodbye to this world yet and movies would be a great way to cling on.
