Book Beginnings is a book meme hosted by Rose City Reader where participants share the first sentence (or so) of the book, along with initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires.
The Friday 56 is hosted by Freda’s Voice, and the rules are quite simple: Grab a book, any book, turn to page 56 or 56% in your e-reader. Find any non-spoilery sentence(s) and post.
This week’s book:
Control. Precision. Family. These are the principles that drive Silver Mercant. At a time when the fledgling Trinity Accord seeks to unite a divided world, with Silver playing a crucial role as director of a worldwide emergency response network, wildness and chaos are the last things she needs in her life. But that's exactly what Valentin Nikolaev, alpha of the StoneWater bears, brings with him.
Valentin has never met a more fascinating woman. Though Silver is ruled by Silence--her mind clear of all emotion--Valentin senses a whisper of fire around her. That's what keeps him climbing apartment buildings to be near her. But when a shadow assassin almost succeeds in poisoning Silver, the stakes become deadly serious...and Silver finds herself in the heart of a powerful bear clan.
Her would-be assassin has no idea what their poison has unleashed.
BOOK BEGINNINGS:
Age of Trinity
FRIDAY 56:
“Do you like being noisy now?” Sveta asked after a long pause.
“Noisy?”
“’Cause you were Silent before?”
“Oh, I see.” Silver took time to consider the question. “Emotion—being noisy—is new to me. But . . . yes, I think I like being noisy. The world is a much more eclectically beautiful place with emotion in it, despite the clear disadvantage of losing the power of pure rationality.”
“You talk funny,” Arkasha volunteered. “I like you though.”
MY THOUGHTS:
I LOVE this series(Psy-Changeling) this is the first book in season 2 of this series and since I am reading this currently and it was just released on 13th of June, I thought I'll talk about this book.

DeleteHi Priyanka,
ReplyDeleteThis one is definitely way out of my usual reading genres and my comfort zone, although I can still appreciate a writing style I might enjoy, especially your 'Friday 56' lines.
I also much prefer the cover art of the version you shared, over some of the others out there.
'Happy Reading' :)
