Friday Memes: Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Happy Friday everybody!!

Book Beginnings
 
Book Beginnings on Friday is a meme hosted by Becky at Page Turners. Anyone can participate; just share the opening sentence of your current read, making sure that you include the title and author so others know what you're reading. If you like, share with everyone why you do, or do not, like the sentence.
 
The Friday 56

Rules:
  • Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
  • Turn to page 56.
  • Find the fifth sentence.
  • Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of Storytime with Tonya and Friends.
  • Post a link along with your post back to Storytime with Tonya and Friends.
  • Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

This week I finally had a chance to begin Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. It seems like I have been waiting for this book forever. It is the thrilling conclusion to The Hunger Games trilogy.

Beginning:
I stare down at my shoes, watching as a fine layer of ash settles on the worn leather.
Friday 56:
Finnick stands among them, looking dazed but gorgeous.

I can hardly wait to really settle into this book.
