Rose City Reader, is hosting
Book beginnings on Friday. She says:
Please join me 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.
Freda’s voice is hosting
Friday 56 and the rules are:
*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)
*Post it.
*Add your (url) post below in Linky. Add the post url, not your blog url.
*It's that simple.
My book this week is "Prague Fatale" by Philip Kerr
Book beginnings on Friday
"September 1941
The thought of suicide is a real comfort to me: sometimes it's the only way I can get through a sleepless night."
Friday 56
"A science graduate from the University in The Hague, Vranken had been quickly eliminated from Lüdtke's inquiry when his alibi checked out; but, hardly wanting to rely on this alone - after all, his alibi relied on other foreign workers - he had been at pains to adduce evidence of his good character, and to this end he had offered the name of a German whom he'd met before the war, in The Hague."
Review of the book will follow.
