Friday Fun - June 13, 2025

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 read Protected by Jerusha Agen. This is a novella prequel in her Security League series.

        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 Carrie for First Line Friday.)

Here is my Book Beginnings/First Line Friday selection:

Protected by Jerusha Agen:

"She knew the bullet was coming before she heard the shot."

Suspense right from the get go. Sure did draw me in. Wondered why someone was shooting at her.

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:

Protected by Jerusha Agen:

 

"'Drive home?' She swallowed. He meant he wanted to drive her. Kept trying to get her alone with him.

She turned to leave anyway. God could protect her from Jock, wherever he was.

'Tamara, wait,' Jenkin's voice drew closer behind her, but he didn't touch her. 'Please?'

She paused, looked over her shoulder, clutching her purse strap with tense fingers."

Reviews:

Last week I shared one book in my Friday Fun post. Here is the link to that review:

Here is the review for another book that I shared about recently:
