#Friday56

  The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice and the rules are simple:

• Grab a book, any book 
• Turn to Page 56 or 56% in your Ereader (If you want to improvise, go ahead!)
• Find a snippet, but no spoilers!
• Post the snippet to your blog and add your post url to the Linky at the host site

 Here on NH Book Notes I am adding the rule that the book has to be by a NH author.

From American Sweepstakes: How One Small State Bucked the Church, the Feds, and the Mob to Usher in the Lottery Age by Kevin Flynn:

 "A parade snaked its way through Dublin, white-starched hospital nurses waving to the crowd. Containers of hundreds of thousands of tickets received hearty cheers on their way to the Mansion House for selection. Sweep Day in Dublin was like St. Patrick's Day in New York."
