Friday Fun - August 30, 2024

Welcome to my Friday Fun post. This is where I share with three different book parties that post on Fridays: Book Beginnings on Fridays, the Friday 56, and First Line Friday.

This week I have one book to share with you.

I am currently reading A Novel Proposal by Denise Hunter for a couple of my reading challenges. 

        Book Beginnings on Friday     

(Please join Gilion Dumas for Book Beginnings every Friday 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. Please remember to include the title of the book and the author's name.)

and

First Line Friday

(Please join C arrie for First Line Friday.)

Here is my Book Beginnings/First Line Friday selection:

  A Novel Proposal by Denise Hunter:

"Sadie Goodwin's literary dreams came to a shuddering halt in the middle of her favorite SoHo coffee shop."

How upsetting.

Now for:

The Friday 56

The Friday 56 is normally hosted over at Freda's Voice. But Anne from My Head is Full of Books is taking over for a while. 

Rules:

*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader
(If you have to improvise, that's ok.)
 *Find any sentence, (or few, just don't spoil it) that grab you.
*Post it.
*Add your (url) post below in Linky. Add the post url, not your blog url. It's that simple.

Here is my Friday 56 selection:

A Novel Proposal by Denise Hunter:
 

"Her heart thumped at the invitation. After all, they'd worked together so far, and it was nice that he wanted to keep it that way. 'I'd love to . . . but I have a date tonight.' She wasn't sure why she'd used that word, but she couldn't seem to keep herself from testing the waters. And maybe it had its desired effect, because there was a long pause before he responded."
