First Line Fridays

 


Grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line!

Today I am going to post a line from: 

  Welcome to Spicetown
by Sheri Richey


And the first line is...

"With another year behind her, Cora Mae Bingham logged off her computer and sat back in her chair with a sigh on her lips as the screen display changed to a peaceful ocean view.  At the end of her tenth year as mayor of Spicetown, it was time to make plans for the future."  

Happy reading and happy Friday!

  2. Happy Friday!

    Over on my blog I shared the first line of Something Worth Doing by Jane Kirkpatrick.
    "Her dreams of late had been of books with maps of unknown places."
