Welcome to The Friday 56 hosted by Freda’s Voice.
This is a really fun meme!
The only rules are to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader and find a sentence or a few (no spoilers) that grabs you and post it.
Then go over to Freda’s Voice and leave your link so we can visit your 56!
My 56 for this week is from
Mayhem In Margaux
The Winemaker Detective Series #6
by Jean-Pierre Alaux & Noel Balen
My 56
“In other words, you want me to do the work of two people in three hours, tops.”
“Two and a half if you take time for lunch.”

It’s a fun, fast read:)
This sounds interesting, my hubby makes wine so I bet he will love it.
It’s translated from French and well done. A quick, fun one!
I’ve never heard of this series. I hope you are enjoying the story. This week I am spotlighting First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones. It’s been on TBR mountain for a while. Happy reading!
I’m really enjoying it. And it’s in wine country, so double the fun:)
Oooh. I like detective stories. And although I haven’t heard of this series, I think this sounds interesting (and considering it has 7 books out, this must’ve been the “bomb”)
Thanks for sharing and for stopping by earlier!

It was fun and I easily got into it without reading the others. Though, I will be going to them:)
You had me at “a summer in Bordeaux.” Lovely descriptions….thanks for sharing; and thanks for visiting my blog.
I know. Wish I could visit there!
Seems like an interesting story, though that 56 makes me think that the character has a really strict boss.
Can’t say what happened next as it would be a big spoiler. Can say, it was funny:)
Love the Bordeaux winery setting! This sounds like the kind of book I enjoy reading.
My Friday post features What I Remember Most.
Me too. I’d love to visit. Maybe someday:)
I’ve been wanting to read this one and the 56 made me laugh. I read an earlier book in the series and really loved it.
Awesome. That means when I go back to the others, they’ll be just as fun!
I can practically feel the heat from reading the blurb. Hope you enjoy this one!
So can I. But I bet they don’t have the humidity like here!
This sounds like something I would enjoy. Thanks for visiting my blog.

It’s short and fun:)
You had me at ‘Winemaker’s series’. 😀
Happy weekend!
That’s what grabbed me first too:)
Well someone is demanding and unreasonable. 😀
Yep. Kind of demanding isn’t he? I think she can handle him. LOL
Ohh great book looks and sounds really interesting and intriguing. Thanks for stopping by my blog! 🙂
You nailed it:)
I’ll take one of those.
sherry @ fundinmental
To go? LOL
Oh I do like the sound of that. Enjoy!
I did. Just finished it:)
Love the setting and the snippet shared. This one sounds very interesting. I often thought that I might enjoy having our own vineyard but our avocado grove is great!
