the friday 56

The Friday 56

Rules:
*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader
(If you have to improvise, that's ok.)
*Find any sentence, (or few, just don't spoil it)
*Post it.


I'm still reading Puddin' (Dumplin' #2).


From page 90:

I knew working with Callie would test my patience. She's just one of those girls. The kind of girl who I'm sure is smart, but gets by on pretty. She doesn't have to go out of her way to be polite or sweet to anyone, because she's not trying to make up for something else. I know people think I'm just a ball of cheer, and I am. Sometimes. But I don't exactly get to be moody or snappy when I don't feel like putting on a happy face, because when most people meet me, I'm already starting out with a deficit. Fat girls don't get that luxury.

We watched the movie on Netflix and enjoyed it. One of the few times I've seen the movie before reading the book. Are you planning to see the movie after? (or have you already seen it?)

This reminds me I still need to watch Dumplin' and read the book.

I saw the movie on Netflix but didn't know it was a book. Sounds like a good one! Happy weekend!
