And the first line is...

Happy reading and happy Friday!

    That's a lovely first line, and it really sets up the setting of the book!

    On my blog this week, I'm sharing the first line (from the prologue) of The Solid Grounds Coffee Company by Carla Laureano:

    "By all accounts, Suesca was haunted."

    I hope you have a lovely weekend :)
