Book Beginning is a meme hosted on Rose City Reader. To partecipate, you have to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you are reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires.
Friday 56 is a meme hosted on Freda's Voice. To participate, you have to post one or a few sentences from either page 56 or 56% of a book of your choosing.
There's an uneasiness that remains after your best friend tried to kill you.
It's pretty good, as far as opening sentences go, since it immediately captures the reader's attention.
Taken from page 56 of the book:
Hearing the skimming of arrows again, Agatha swung her head between paths, burning trees growing nearer… nearer…

ReplyDeleteI've been slowly reading the first book, so first of, ack spoiler. But, still sounds as interesting as the first.

That's it, I want to read this book! I would definitely be a bit hesitant about seeing anyone who tried to kill me again! And the F56 is some pretty good action description! Thanks for introducing me to this one, it's on my TBR list! Thanks for sharing :) Have a great weekend!

This does sound good. With best friends like that, who needs enemies?
ReplyDeleteI read this book and did not like it. It did have some good quotes in it.
ReplyDeleteI've seen this book around, but I've yet to seriously look into it. The first sentence is definitely a good one.
ReplyDeleteSounds exciting! Looks like a fun read!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
I think that an "uneasy" feeling is an understatement ha ha! I'd be freaked out! I am loving the book cover to this, I'm checking it out on GR right now! Thanks for sharing and for stopping by my blog :)
ReplyDeleteI love that first sentence haha
ReplyDeleteThe cover alone on this one would make me want to read it. Thanks for sharing. I appreciate you stopping by my blog on Friday.
