On Fridays, I participate in the weekly linkup called Friday Book Snippets, co-hosted by Anne @ HeadFullofBooks and Olivia @ Bemused and Bookish. The directions for are pretty simple. Share two snippets (a sentence or short paragraph) from a. the book's beginning and b. page 56 (or another page) in the book you are currently reading. No spoilers, please. Join the fun every Friday. Previously, this was The Friday 56 hosted by Anne @ HeadFullofBooks and Rose City Reader.
Happy Friday everyone! This week I'm spotlighting one of my SeasonAthon Academy Semester Five books, The Great Train Robbery by Michael Crichton. It's been awhile since I've read a Michael Crichton book, but this does sound intriguing.
Forty minutes out of London, passing through the rolling green fields and cherry orchards of Kent, the morning train of the South Eastern Railway attained its maximum speed of fifty-four miles an hour.

Badger-baiting? Is that what I think it is?
ReplyDeleteBadger-baiting doesn't sound good to me ...
