Friday Memes: The Girl Who Could Not Dream by Sarah Beth Durst

Posted by Kathy Martin at 6:30 AM
Happy Friday everybody!!
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.

Beginning:
Sophie had only ever stolen one dream.
Friday 56:
He shifted from foot to foot. "Look, Sophie...you won't, you know..."

"Tell anyone?" she finished for him. "I never do."
This week I am spotlighting The Girl Who Could Not Dream by Sarah Beth Durst. I got this middle grade ARC from the author via NetGalley. Here is the description from Amazon:
Sophie loves the hidden shop below her parents' bookstore, where dreams are secretly bought and sold. When the dream shop is robbed and her parents go missing, Sophie must unravel the truth to save them. Together with her best friend—a wisecracking and fanatically loyal monster named Monster—she must decide whom to trust with her family’s carefully guarded secrets. Who will help them, and who will betray them?

    I love the opening line about she had only stolen one dream because how has she stolen a dream and then why only one? I'm intrigued enough to want to know more and might look out for this book now.

    Here’s my Book Beginnings post:
