I'm linking up with Hoarding Books to share the first line of my current read.
"Crumbling walls were rare, beautiful things."
I can't wait to get started on this one. It sounds delightful. What are you reading this weekend? Let me know in the comments.
I just finished reading this wonderful book! Such an intricate story with lots of emotion!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear you enjoyed it!
DeleteThis is on my TBR! Can't wait to read this!
ReplyDeleteI’m sharing about “Across the Blue” by Carrie Turansky on the blog today. My first line will come from “Keturah” by Lisa T. Bergren since it’s the closest book to me.
10 June, 1773
Rivenshire, England
In the hopes that at least one would get through, their father had sent three copies of his last letter from the West Indies; as it happened. his daughters received them all.
Happy Friday!
I love the cover of Keturah! Enjoy!
DeleteThis was a beautiful read. Made me want to visit France (and find a castle) :)
ReplyDeleteThis is what I just started:
Not much had changed about Laurel Cove, North Carolina in the ten years since Livy Johnson had last visited. (Someplace Familiar by Teresa Tysinger)
Enjoy your weekend.
Thanks for stopping by, Suzie!
DeleteMy first line us from Fugitive Spy by Jordyn Redwood:
ReplyDeleteAs CIA spy Casper English crossed the threshold into the abandoned home, the faint wheezes of a man teetering on death whispered just above the gusting snowstorm.
Sounds exciting and a little creepy! Enjoy!
DeleteHappy Friday! My first line is from My Heart Belongs in Castle Gate, Utah by Angie Dicken:
ReplyDelete“Leanna McKee pushed her hat by its brim, hiding her face as best she could. She would not let him see her.”
Thanks for stopping by, Becky! Enjoy your book!
DeleteI'm looking forward to reading The Lost Castle! I'm sharing from Michelle Griep's The Innkeeper's Daughter on my blog today, so here I'll share the first two lines from a different book I'm currently reading, Winter in Thrush Green by Miss Read:
ReplyDelete“Autumn had come early to Thrush Green. The avenue of horse-chestnuts, which ran across its northerly end, blazed like a bonfire.”
That sounds like a cozy winter read. Enjoy!
DeleteI never thought of crumbling walls as beautiful. Interesting first line. On my blog, I’m featuring A Worthy Pursuit by Karen Witemeyer. Here, I will share a line from a book I am currently reading. The Heaven Answer Book by Billy Graham. The first line in the Preface is “One of the Bible’s greatest truths is that we were not meant for this world alone. We were meant for Heaven — and Heaven is our ultimate home. But what exactly is Heaven?” I wish you a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful. Rev. Graham will be missed. Thanks for sharing.
DeleteThis one is up next for me!
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy it. I've loved all of her books.
DeleteI cannot wait to read this book!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Saturday!!!
On my blog, I'm sharing the first lines from Lisa T. Bergren's fantastic novel, Keturah. Here, I will share the first lines from the novel I'm currently reading, A Brush with the Beast by Richard Sones.
"Good night, Mr. D," chirped an elderly secretary as Nick left his office on another late night. Slim, young, black briefcase in hand, he walked briskly toward the door.
Sounds good! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI need to put this book on my TBR. :) Happy Thursday!
