The Friday 56 (13)

     The Friday 56 is a weekly meme hosted by Freda's Voice where every Friday you pick a book and turn to page 56 or 56%, and select a sentence or a few, as long as it's not a spoiler. For the full rules, visit the the page HERE

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Other Stories""Have you guessed the riddle yet?" the Hatter said, turning to Alice again.
"No, I give up," Alice replied.  "What's the answer?"
"I haven't the slightest idea," said the Hatter.
"Nor I," said the March Hare."--Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
     I have to say that I do love this edition from Barnes & Noble, and this quote is actually from page 71, but I like it.  Anyway, what's on your page 56 this week?

    That's a great excerpt! It shows the zaniness of the characters in this classic story.
    My Friday post features DEAR SUGAR.

    I'm embarrassed to say I haven't read this yet BUT it is on my Classics Club list so I hope to fix that soon. Love the cover. It's definitely got the quirkiness that I've picked up from the movies. The excerpt was perfect - definitely worth skipping ahead a few pages.

      This is actually the first time I've read Alice as well, though I have seen the movies. And I definitely love the Barnes & Noble edition, the cover is spectacular. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!
