I easily read over a hundred pages of Mitch Albom's The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto in that one sitting. The story is captivating...but more on the book in next week's review. What I was pleased to see was that besides the story, the writing is also captivating. Phrases and paragraphs stood out to me from the start. So I snapshot a few of the them for this week's Sunday Sentence.
The cool thing about it, is that the phrases are carried throughout the book, into different stages of Frankie Presto's life. Can't wait to put up my review. Have a good week readers!
I wish there was a like button! Those are great passages!
ReplyDeleteAnd right off the bat too. Great story as well.
DeleteLove these! I'm reading this now and, dare I say, the writing is lyrical ;)
ReplyDeleteYes...goes right along with the attitude of the narrator and flow of the story.
