First Lines Fridays is a weekly feature for book lovers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines?
Psst I found this at Becky’s Book Blog. Please go check her out!
- Pick a book off your shelf (it could be a current read, ARC, TBR, favorite read, (close your eyes and pick a book) and open to the first page.
- Copy the first few lines, but don’t give anything else about the book away just yet – you need to hook the reader first.
- Finally… reveal the book!
Ask yourself the following question: Am I stressed out, overbooked, and/or overwhelmed by life? If the answer is yes to any of these questions, then pause for a moment to ask yourself: Why?
I’m willing to bet the answer is: Because you give too many fucks. Or, more specifically, because you think you have to give those fucks.
I’m here to help.
Ok are you ready ?????????????

I have lent out this book so much I swear I have no earthly clue where it is and that is fantastic. Bless.
I already love this book based on the title alone ????
I swear I didn’t get that was the *actual* quote ahahaha I thought it was you saying that in relation of it xD but then I scrolled and saw that it was, in fact, that quote!
ahaha, I missed my chance to guess – idk why I didn’t thought of that book.
God how I wish I’d written that…I would not have had the year of financial hell that I’m sitting in lol…. she is FANTASTIC. It is a short funny but seriously life altering book.
But thank you for such a compliment!
I need to read this book asap just from the first line alone!
I’ve loaned this book out so many times I dont even know where it is!!
