Friday 56... The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry

Friday 56 is hosted by Fredaman .

Rules:
*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader
 *Find any sentence, (or few, just don't spoil it) that grabs you.
*Post it.
here's mine:

The hills were shaded an opaque blue and the cows grazing them glowed a soft apricot against the dying light, Harold couldn't help wishing that David knew he was walking.  He wondered if Maureen would talk to him about it, and the words she would use.  The stars began to prick the night sky, one after another, so that the growing darkness trembled.  Even as he looked he found them.

For the second night in a row, Harold slept without dreaming.

I've only just begun to read this one, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, Rachel Joyce.


I'm sure I'll be finishing it soon, I'm on the buses again this weekend. I am so tired of buses.
