First Line Friday ~ The Last Year of the War by Susan Meissner

I'm linking up with Hoarding Books to share the first line of my current read. 

The Last Year of the War

"I've a thief to thank for finding the one person I need to see before I die."

What are you reading this weekend? Let me know in the comments.

  1. I really want to read this one!
    On my blog today I shared the first line from When You Are Near by Tracie Peterson: https://thebeccafiles.com/2019/03/22/first-line-friday-53/ but I'm now currently reading The Baggage Handler by David Rawlings so I'll share the first line from my current chapter (4) here: "David corralled his nerves and forced them into one knee, which bounced an erratic dance as he sat in the reception area of Sisyphus Financial's top floor." Hope you have a great weekend!

  2. Happy Friday! My first line is from “How the Light Gets In” by Jolina Petersheim:

    “The caskets were closed, of course.”

  3. I haven't read any books by Susan Meissner, but I'd like to as I keep hearing about them! Today I'm sharing the first line from The Lady of Tarpon Springs by Judith Miller:

    "Zanna Krykos closed her eyes and offered a silent prayer for God's direction."

    Have a great weekend!

  4. This is a great cover - it certainly draws me in.

    I'm sharing the first line from The King's Mercy by Lori Benton on my blog today, and that's what I'm currently reading. It's my first Lori Benton book and I've heard great things about her writing, so I have high expectations!
