Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader

The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice

Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

My Book Beginning:

I was FOURTEEN THE FIRST TIME I CAME UPON LUCI QUICK ON A STARK late-December afternoon that smelled of woodsmoke and pine needles. Atlas, my dog, was also fourteen. However, in the unfairness of things, he was already an old man.

 

MY 56%:

"No, no, it's not that." Touched at her honesty, I allowed myself the same generosity. "I'm embarrassed by how we might appear to you. Not the other way around."


This book is a historical fiction. Tess Thompson is such a good author. You will LOVE this book!
