The Friday 56 - Wish You Were Here




"For the first time in a long time, I don't know what my future is,
Meggie." Allison rested her head on Meghan's shoulder.

"If you can stop controlling your life, maybe God will finally have
a chance to get a word in edgewise and be able to tell you want he
wants for your life."

The Friday 56 - Princess Alessa and the Frog War



 Had it all been just a dream? If the Frog had been forbidden to predict the future of the royal family, he had to obey. The King could have had him hanged otherwise. Alessa was more and more convinced that her conversation with the Talking Frog had only taken place inside her head.

It didn't occur to Nevin that the man might have been driven
out by the authorities, that he might be on the run. That in his
maddness he could be give to visions and grandiose predictions,
putting ideas into the heads of gullible young girls and threatening
those less than willing to do as he wished.

The Friday 56 - The Captive Heart






Kyra stood over him, breathing hard, her face flushed, the
shovel cocked over her shoulder in case she needed to 
swing it a second time.

The Friday 56 - The Hunger Games





"Here's some advice. Stay Alive," says Haymitch, and then bursts out laughing.
I exchange a look with Peeta before I remember I'm having nothing more to do with him.
I'm surprised to see the hardness in his eyes. He generally seems so mild.

The Friday 56 - The Return to Finkleton





 
Robert noticed people hurrying past the large shop window.
He could hear people screaming, and others yelling.
He looked through the enormous window to see
what was causing the commotion. Then he saw it.

The Friday 56 - Cynthia's Attic: The Missing Locket

the Friday 56 is hosted by  Freda's Voice


 

As I casually glanced up, I caught a reflection
in the ornately carved mirror that was sitting on
top of the antique dresser, and what I saw took my breath away.
I quickly turned toward Cynthia and, to my relief, I saw my friend
of twelve years. But when I looked back into the mirror, I saw a face 
that wasn't mine - a face I recognized as that of my grandmother when she was a young girl.

Friday 56 - Sixty Acres and a Bride








Already determined she wouldn't leave the ranch without Rosa,
Molly strained her eyes at the empty road and waited 
for the lumber wagon to appear on its way back to the mill.
The sooner she got them separated the better. Weston's deep
lullaby wrung her heart, and she wasn't nestled against him 
like Rosa manged to be.
