Friday Memes

This week I am posting from Markus Zusak's The Book Thief.

Friday Book Beginnings is a weekly Meme hosted at A Few More Pages..

Prologue
Death and Chocolate

First the colours.
Then the humans.
That's usually how I see things.
Or at least, how I try.

Begining

Beside the Railway Line
First up is something white. Of the blinding kind.

Friday 56 hosted @ Freda's Voice is a weekly Meme where we share an interesting snippet from page 56 of any book.

'I can't even see the finish line,' Liesel complained.

I've heard of The Book Thief, I think. The opening sounds intriguing. Is it like The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time?

The Book Thief is one of my favourite books! :)

It's about a young girl, a book thief, in Hitler's Germany narrated by Death. Quite different from The curious incident!

Great blog about books :)

As an avid Sherlockian, I too like the BBC Sherlock series, despite some considerable deviations from the canon.

Have you tried the Russian adaptation with Vasily Livanov as Sherlock Holmes.

Cheers!
