Friday Fun - May 15, 2026

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'm reading Silent Menace by Angela Carlisle. This is the third book in The Secrets of Kincaid 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:

 Silent Menace by Angela Carlisle:

"It's so hot in here."

Why is it so hot. Where is this person? I wasn't sure who exactly it was because this was from the prologue.

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:

Silent Menace by Angela Carlisle:

"'You need to back off, Oscar.' Hailey placed a protective hand on the grocery cart and raised her voice to be heard over his tirade. She tried to look around him to see if anyone was near enough to intervene, but he stood so close he blocked her view as well as any escape.

He leaned in and pointed a thick finger at her. 'You should have left town when your no-good husband died.' He threw in a couple more vulgar words for good measure."

Reviews:

Last week I shared two books in my Friday fun post. I am still reading the one book, but I did finish the other. Here is the review.
