The Friday 56 - June 13th 2014 - AmberBug

The Friday 56

Meet The Friday 56, a meme we found on Freda's Voice (another great book blog). The rules are as follows:

Welcome to Week 182!

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) that grab you.
*Post it.
*Add your (url) post below in Linky. Add the post url, not your blog url. It's that simple.


A Sleep and a Forgetting

"You want to be careful, Nannie," her father added, "about people's feelings when you meet them, and afterwards seem not to know them."

"But I do know them, papa," she remonstrated.

"You want to be careful," her father repeated.

"I will - I will indeed." Her lips quivered, and the tears came, which Lanfear had to keep from flowing by what quick turn he could give to something else.

*To give a little explanation, the book is about a Doctor who meets a father & daughter while on vacation. 
The Daughter has a memory problem and forgets people right after she meets them. 
The above is an example and repercussion of that.*

  5. Sometimes I have a similar problem -- not remembering people's names! I'm curious about how that affects the character in this book. Sounds like a good story.
    Here's the link to my Friday post: STELLA IN STILETTOS.

  7. Her father seems a little critical and cold to me.
