Book Beginnings on Friday
is a bookish meme now
sponsored by Rose City Reader (who originally inspired the meme).
Here's what you do: Share the first line
(or two) of the book you are currently
reading on your blog or in the comments
section. Include the title and author so
we know what you're reading. Then, if you
are so moved, let us know what your
first impressions were based on that first line
and if you did or did not like that sentence. Link up each week
at Gilion's place.
Here's mine from Nine Man's Murder by Eric Keith:

The railroad station was deserted. Not a soul in sight. Bryan West had arrived before the others, it seemed.
The Friday 56 is a bookish meme
sponsored by Freda's Voice. It is really easy to
participate. Just grab a book, any book, and turn
to page 56. Find a sentence that grabs you and
post it.Here's mine from Nine Man's Murder by Eric Keith:
"There are supernatural forces all around us," Hatter explained, "whose role is to punish offenders."
This sounds really interesting. My 56 is here

Hi! Thanks for the visit to my blog!
ReplyDeleteWish the 'Friday 56' quote were true in real life!
Deserted train stations and supernatural forces, this sounds like one I would like.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Supernatural forces that punish...that sounds slightly scary! But the beginning is really good at setting the tone and scene! Hop on over to my Friday Post if you have the time! Hope you have a great weekend!

Sounds promising! And dark, with punitive elements. Thanks for sharing.
