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

The Premonition Series #1

My 56

We walk together to the bookstore. We have little trouble purchasing what we need. It’s fortunate for me that Russell offers to help me with my books because when I have them all, I almost need a crane to get them back to my room.

I had to use this. It’s about books! LOL

Synopsis

My name is Evie Claremont and this was to be the making of me–my freshman year of college. I’d been hoping that once I’d arrived on Crestwood’s campus, the nightmare that I’ve been having would go away. It hasn’t.
I may be an inexperienced seventeen-year-old, but I’m grounded…sane. I look for rational explanations to even the strangest circumstances. Since meeting sophomore Reed Wellington, however, nothing makes any sense. Whenever he’s near, I feel an attraction to him–a magnetic kind of force pulling me towards him. I know what you’re thinking…that sounds fairly awesome. Yeah, it would be…if he liked me, but Reed acts as if I’m the worst thing that has ever happened to Crestwood…or him. But get this, for some reason every time I turn around he’s there, barging into my life.
What is the secret that he’s keeping from me? I’m hoping that it’s anything but what I suspect: that he’s not exactly normal…and neither am I. So, maybe Crestwood won’t be the making of me, but it could be the breaking of me. I’ve been left to wonder if the dark future my dream is foretelling is…inescapable.

    The 56 sounds like such a normal college event – but with a title like The Inescapable in a series called Premonition, I’d say this book is about anything but the normal ordinary events.

    My 56 is from When We Were by Alexandria Diaz: http://www.foofynotfoofy.com/foofynotfoofy/2015/8/21/the-friday-56-when-we-were-by-alexandria-diaz

  7. LOL I wish that was my dilemma…. lol
    Happy weekend!

    “What about the lady who creamed the guy with a wok?”

  9. This brings back some serious memories of buying books in college and then having to figure out how to get them back to the car! I could’ve used a Russell!

  10. Oh that 56 sounds like a dream and the cover is wonderful. Hope you enjoy your weekend!

  11. Great excerpt! I guess all of us who participate in The Friday 56 are addicted to books, aren’t we? Inescapable sounds like a good story.
    My Friday post features Key to Love.

    I apparently broke protocol by posting a one-line page-56 excerpt from a book in this “comments” section, and it seems I can’t delete it. Sorry for the weirdness! I’m new to this site.

  13. DL Lewis says:

    I had to have rotator-cuff surgery a couple of years ago because when I moved to a different house, I had to lift and carry numerous boxes filled with books and tore two tendons in my right shoulder. A crane would’ve been swell!
