Friday 56 and Book Beginnings: Melokai (In the Heart of the Mountains #1) by Rosalyn Kelly || Friday 50/50: Book You Can/Can't Reread

This is a weekly meme hosted by Freda's Voice

These are the rules:

1. Grab a book, any book.

2. Turn to page 56, or 56% on your eReader.

3. Find any sentence (or a few, just don't spoil it) that grabs you.

4. Post it.

5. Add the URL to your post in the link on Freda's most recent Friday 56 post.

Please join us over at RoseCityReader every Friday to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you are reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires. Please remember to include the title of the book and the author’s name.

I've already shared the books I am currently reading, and one of the books doesn't have a cover yet. I requested a bunch of books close together on NetGalley not expecting to get approved for many of them, but I got approved for most of them. This is one of the books.  I hope to get to this book soon.


Synopsis:
    Legendary warrior Ramya has successfully ruled as Melokai for longer than most. Prosperous, peaceful, and happy, her people love her. Or so she thinks.
    Ramya’s time is up. Bracing herself for the gruesome sentence imposed on all Melokais who have served their purpose, she hears instead a shocking prophecy.
    Is the abrupt appearance of a mysterious, eastern cave creature the prophesied danger? Or is it something darker, more evil? And what of the wolves? Will the ferocious war with their kind oust her from power?
    Suddenly Ramya must fight threats from all sides to save her mountain realm. But while her back is turned, a conspiracy within her inner circle is festering. Ramya and her female warriors must crush an epic rebellion before it can destroy her and devastate her beloved nation.
    She thinks it’s the end, but it’s just the beginning...

Book Beginning:
RAMYA
Ramya liked her tongue. She wasn't ready to give it up, not yet. The Melokai rolled it around her teeth, touched it to the roof of her mouth and brought it back down with a satisfying cluck.

My 56:
"You could've leapt across, flown, disappeared and reappeared. You chose the hardest option..." The magic said.
"Be quiet!" V snapped.

50/50 Friday is a new weekly link-up hosted by Carrie @ The Butterfly Reader and Laura @ Blue Eye Books.  Every week they have a new topic featuring two sides of the same coin - you share a book that suits each category and link up on the hosts' blogs.

The wording for this is a little odd, So I am altering it a little.

Will Always Re-read
   I can always re-read Harry Potter. Any of the books, even the ones I don't like as much.

Never Again.
   There are a couple. Actually, there are about 10 books I will never even look at again. I can't think of one in particular off the top of my head.
