And the first line is...
Lillian
"'Mama.' The word came quietly at first, then grew in intensity. 'Mama! Mama!' Lillian's small body wrestled in the dark bedroom until her thick quilt became tangled, constricting around her tiny shoulders."
Happy reading and happy Friday!

Happy Friday! My first line is from “Stay With Me” by Becky Wade:
ReplyDelete“The hallway floor jolts downward beneath my feet, throwing me off balance.”

DeleteHappy Friday!
ReplyDeleteI love Janette Oke, and really need to get around to reading this one.
My first line this week comes The Traitor's Pawn by Lisa Harris:
"Watch Your Back.....this isn't over."
Hope you have a great weekend :)

ReplyDeleteToday on my blog I'm sharing from Masquerade at Middlecrest Abbey by Abigail Wilson. It's an excellent novel! Currently I'm reading Unveiling the Past by Kim Vogel Sawyer. I'm on chapter 19, so I'll post a line from there.
"It shouldn't surprise us that someone else lives at the address from 1998."
Hope you have a great weekend!
Thank you Nicole! Both of those books sound excellent--happy reading!
DeleteHappy Friday!
ReplyDeleteThis week on my blog I shared the first line from This Wandering Heart by Janine Rosche but I'm currently reading Of Literature and Lattes by Katherine Reay so I'll share the first line from my current chapter (17) here: "Alyssa was sitting at her dad's old desk sorting through her notes on Jeremy's data when her mom walked through the back door and into the kitchen." Hope you have a great reading weekend!
Thank you Becca! I love the title of that book--Of Literature and Lattes--what a great combination! Happy reading!
DeleteMy first line is from Storing Up Trouble by Jen Turano:
ReplyDeleteSeptember 1886
The truth of the matter was this—she, Miss Beatrix Waterbury, had been banished from New York, and all because she’d had the great misfortune of landing herself in jail…twice.
I just purchased two of Jen Turano's books--can't wait to read them! Happy reading Paula!
DeleteI’m sharing the first line from Sandpiper Cove by Irene Hannon on my blog today and I’m currently on chapter 19 so I’ll share that first line here: “She might have dragged her feet about coming.” I hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ellie! That's a great first line--happy reading!
