Book Beginnings and Friday 56 for March 15th

It's Friday!  So here again are Book Beginnings and Friday 56.

This week, I'm reading The Silent Ghost, an e-book novella in the Ghost of Granny Apples series by Sue Ann Jaffarian.





Here's the first sentence:

Tanisha Costello pressed an index finger into the bits of flakey dough and nuts left on her plate and brought it to her lips, licking it slowly.

And here's the Friday 56.  (Okay, I'm not 56% in, so I'm going with 37%.)

Granny studied Tanisha, then turned to Kelly with a grin.  "I like this girl.  We think alike - great minds and all."

Like the full length novels I've read before, this is a fun, intriguing supernatural mystery.  Review to come in the next couple of days, I'm sure, since it is a fast read.

Speaking of which, I just reviewed last week's book, Red Velvet Cupcake Murder by Joanne Fluke.

    1. Yeah, the author always does a good job of painting pictures with words without slowing things down.

    1. That's nothing. Granny is famous for her apple pies. Now I bet your mouth is really watering.
