The Friday 56: #1

*****On Fridays, Freda's Voice hosts a weekly meme. You grab a book, turn to page 56 or 56%, find a sentence/sentences, post it, and link up!*****


The book that I chose for today's Friday 56 is Rule by Jay Crownover, the first book in the Marked Men's series and one of my favorite books. 



"No." I didn't say anything else, just "no," because I didn't need to explain myself or my feelings or the fact that I knew most of what he said about Rule was true. I wasn't too good for him; I was just too ME for him to see me as anything other than he always had, and I made peace with that years ago. I took a few more stumbling steps backward and then turned on my heel and broke into a full-on jog to get away from him. I think he called my name, but I didn't care

  1. Crownover is an author I've really been wanting to read. I read some reviews for another book (maybe Rowdy?) and it sounded really good and different. I love the voice in this one. I definitely need to move her up the list.
