Good morning friends--I hope everyone is having a great start to June! Is is hot where you are? I love getting outside in order to enjoy the sunshine and to take a long walk. It just lifts your spirits! What are some fun things you like to do this time of the year? Do you have any travel plans? As always, have a wonderful week and happy reading!
Grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line!
Today I am going to post a line from:
by Karen Witemeyer
And the first line is...
May 1896--Honey Grove, TX
"'The council has denied your appeal, Miss Kemp.' Mayor Longfellow delivered the blow with a finality that threatened to buckle Abigail's knees."
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 minds think alike! I'm sharing this wonderful book today also!
ReplyDeleteHere I'll share the first line from Chapter 2 of the same book.
"Choosing a husband was much like choosing a good baguette."
Awesome! I can't wait to read it. :) Happy Friday Trisha!
DeleteHappy Friday! I've been hearing lots of good buzz about More Than Words Can Say! Today I'm sharing the first lines from Freedom's Ring by Heidi Chiavaroli: "Death's threshold overwhelmed me in a swell of instant silence and intense heat."

I love the dress on the front of Freedom's Ring...so beautiful! Happy reading Jolene!
DeleteHappy Weekend! My first line is from “Cabbages and Kings: Reflections on Living Abundantly in Christ” by Dianne Barker:
ReplyDelete“I didn’t have an ordinary childhood and I didn’t have ordinary dreams.”
Thanks Becky! Happy reading!
DeleteHappy Friday! I'm sharing from an upcoming release today, Belinda Blake and the Snake in the Grass by Heather Day Gilbert. Here is the first line from Chapter 2:
ReplyDelete"The first person I saw was Jacques, who was driving a lawnmower directly up an incline that made me hold my breath for his safety."
Oh goodness, I would be terrified to see that scene too! Happy reading Yvette!
DeleteI enjoyed this one!
ReplyDeleteSorry I'm late coming around. My internet went down yesterday and it's been mostly down since then. They're sending someone out Monday to figure out what's going on. On my blog this week I featured The Brides of Big Valley by Wanda, Jean, and Richelle Brunstetter but I am currently reading Tate by Susan May Warren so I'll share the first line from chapter 4 here: "With one article of clothing, Glo became a new woman." Hope you have a great weekend with plenty of reading time! :)
Thanks Becca! I want to know what that one article of clothing was...lol. Happy reading!
