My book this week is Particulate Matter by Felicia Luna Lemus
My 56:
I should probably stop scowling at people so often.
It was not hard to pick my 56. That sentence is all that is on page 56. The book is about a year in Lemus's life where LA is burning and she is away from her spouse taking care of the house they used to share. It is told with few words. Sometimes just one word per page. You can read the whole thing in less than half an hour. It has the feel of poetry about it and it does manage to evoke emotions even with the limited text.
