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 reading The Souvenir Museum by Elizabeth McCracken.


From page 39:

"I'm not interested in birds when they fly," said David.  Then to change the subject, "Where are you visiting from?"

"Tomorrow we fly ourselves.  To Helsinki."

"That's home?" Louis asked.

"That's home."

"Ah," David said, "you're Finnish."

"Finnish," said Louis.  "Like a fish."

"Just so," said the woman.  "Ah, here are my people."

Here they came.
