I'm linking up with Hoarding Books to share the first line of my current read.
"You and your brother are to go to the music room, close the door, and don't come out until I say you can."
What are you reading this weekend? Let me know in the comments.
Over on my blog, I’m sharing the first line of Amanda Dykes’s novella “Up from the Sea”. Here I’ll share with you the first line from chapter 25 of the book I’m currently reading, The Governess of Penwythe Hall by Sarah E. Ladd. “They’d found her.”
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
ReplyDeleteToday on my blog I am sharing the first few lines from The Memory House by Rachel Hauck. It is SO awesome. You can see my post by going to: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2019/04/11/first-line-friday-82-2/. Currently, I am on chapter 22, so I will share a line from there.
"The knock came late as the house rattled with the crashes and flashes of a spring thunderstorm."
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading! 🙂❤️📚
Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteThe book I shared today on my blog is Caught by Surprise by Jen Turano but I'm currently reading The Governess of Penwythe Hall by Sara E Ladd so I'll share the first line from my current chapter (17) here: "Delia chewed her lip as she traversed the path to Fairhold Cottage, mentally practicing what she wanted to say." Hope you have a great day and a wonderful weekend!
Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth Camden's books are always interesting. A Daring Venture is on my TBR list.
Today on my blog, I am sharing the opening line from Susan Anne Mason’s A Worthy Heart. I’m also reading The Daughter of Highland Hall by Carrie Turansky. The first line is:
“If she lived to be one hundred and five, Katherine Evangeline Ramsey would never understand why every debutante must begin the London social season by curtsying to the king and queen.”
Hope you have a great weekend. 🙂
Weddings, Willows, and Revised Expectations by V. Joy Palmer is on top of my “read this next” stack. I’m sharing from Chapter 1 on my blog, so here is the first line from the prologue:
ReplyDelete“A great philosopher looks at his various struggles as fodder for his innovative thinking, but, since I am not a great philosopher, I look at my struggles as something akin to stepping on a bee the size of a Komodo dragon.”
Happy Friday and have a good weekend!
I love Elizabeth Camden's books :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sharing the first line from Beyond the Stars, Past the Moons by Jebraun Clifford on my blog today. It's from the Encircled anthology, which I'm looking forward to reading.
Here's another first line from the anthology. This one is from Edged in Silver by Laurie Lucking:
"If only I didn’t have to go home."
Happy reading. Have a great weekend :)
Another author I've been meaning to read but never seem to get around to...
ReplyDeleteI'm sharing about a FREE novella by Tari Faris on my blog today, but I'm also in the middle of listening to Mary Barton by Elizabeth Gaskell, narrated by Juliet Stevenson. I'm absolutely loving it--both the story and the narration. Here's the first line from chapter 16:
The day arrived on which the masters were to have an interview with a deputation of the work-people.
Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteToday I'm sharing the first lines from Glory Road by Lauren K. Denton:
"I'd been on the porch steps shelling purple hull peas for less than an hour and my thumbnails had already turned purple."
