The Friday 56

The Friday 56 is a weekly blog meme hosted by Freda’s Voice. Join us every Friday and share an excerpt from a book you’ve been reading.

Rules:

*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader.
*Find any sentence (or a few, just don’t spoil it) that grab you.
*Post it.
*Add your (url) post here in Linky. Add the post url, not your blog url. It’s that simple.

That night when we saw her on the roof, Alexandria was trying to catch messages from space. She does it every single night and she hasn’t missed a single opportunity for years. And she never knows when they’re coming. But because she’s in the hospital she can’t do it anymore.

This quote alone has me anticipating the moment I get to read this book! I have yet to start this but I can not wait to find out who Alexandria is and why she is in the hospital? How does she know about these messages and to wait for them? What do they say?
