Friday 56 and Book Beginnings! No. 15

Hey everyone and welcome back (or to!!) my blog! I'm Genni, and today I'll be participating in Friday 56 and Book Beginnings. They are hosted by Freda's Voice and Rose City Reader, respectively!

The rules are simple for both. For the Friday 56, we turn to page 56 or 56% in our e-reader and highlight a passage of any book! Book Beginnings is where you feature the first sentence (or so) of a book and give your thoughts and impressions.

 This weekend I'll be featuring Dating You Hating You by Christina Lauren! 


 



Book Beginnings!
This isn't my favorite opening line, but I did want to continue reading after! I'm not familiar with the geography of Hollywood, but maybe I'll get a better feel for it by reading the book!

Friday 56!

I haven't gotten to this part of the book yet, but from the page I've skimmed, it seems like the two protagonists are hugging and Evie is trying to keep her thoughts strictly PG despite their apparent chemistry.  

Have you read anything by Christina Lauren? What did you think?

Thanks so much for stopping by and I'll see you soon with another post!

Happy Reading!

Genni @ Ready, Set, Read!

      I'm enjoying it! I think I like Roomies a bit more, but I'm still have a really fun time. I hope you enjoy the author duo!

    I hope you enjoy the book. It is new to me. This week I have a book that has been on TBR mountain way too long - A Rumor of Bones by Beverly Connor. Happy reading!

      Thanks Kathy! It's new to me as well. I read Roomies by Christina Lauren this week, and just felt the need to read more from the author!

      I hope you're enjoying it! I'll make sure to visit your post. Happy reading to you too! :)

    Friday 56 and the Book Beginning are interesting. Don't know why the winding road is necessary.

    I love the quote about not thinking dirty thoughts, lol! The only book I've read by these two is Autoboyography. It wasn't until I listened to the author bit at the end that I realized Christina was one person and Lauren was another. Autoboyogprahy was a blast, though. My cheeks would hurt from smiling so much!

      Haha, yes, it's hilarious! One of my friends has read Christina Lauren before, so she told me about how they are two people, but I don't think I would've figured it out so quickly on my own. I want to read Autoboyography sometime soon, but I'm recently in the mood for some adult romance. That's so great to hear that you liked it! I haven't heard too many people talking about it!

      Thank you so much Lindsi! Checking out your blog and following back. :D
