Today I wanted to highlight one of my favorite stories from one of my favorite series of books. C.S. Lewis was a remarkable author, and I have enjoyed reading his books through the years. As an Oxford scholar, he truly understood so much about storytelling, people, and the Bible. His testimony is incredible, and I encourage you to read it. In fact, I recommend reading any of his works. Happy reading friends!
Grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line!
Today I am going to post a line from:
Prince Caspian
by C.S. Lewis
And the first line is...
"Once there were four children whose names were Peter, Edmund, Susan, and Lucy, and it has been told in another book called The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe how they had a remarkable adventure."
Happy reading and happy Friday!
Let me know your first line in the comments & then head over to Hoarding Books to see who else is participating!
Great book! Happy Friday! My first line is from "Yesterday's Promises" by Kimberly Rae Jordan:
ReplyDelete"Danica Callaghan sank down on the lowest of the wide, built-in, carpeted risers and surveyed her handiwork."
Happy Friday Becky! I completely understand this line. After a long, hard day, it's always nice to survey one's handiwork. :) Happy reading!

DeleteHappy Friday! My first lines come from The Warrior Maiden by Melanie Dickerson:
ReplyDelete"Galloping her horse past the big oak tree, Mulan pulled the bowstring taut. She aimed at the knothole with one eye closed and sent the arrow flying toward the target."

ReplyDelete“Llyn Torfinn stood at an i-net station, listening nervously, clasping her thin left arm with her right hand. Not much muscle padded the bones.”
Hope you have a good weekend.
Thanks Yvette! Have a great week too and happy reading!
DeleteLoved that book!
ReplyDeleteOn my blog today I shared the first line from The Forgiving Jar by Wanda E Brunstetter but I'm currently about to start Breach of Trust by Rachel Dylan so I'll share the first line from that book here: "Mia Shaw gripped a bundle of brightly colored helium balloons with the word congratulations splashed all over them." Hope you have a great weekend with plenty of quality reading time!
Thanks Becca! Great first line--I am about to start reading The Forgiving Jar. :) Happy reading!
