First Line Friday
First Lines Fridays is a weekly feature for readers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, readers are hooked on a book by the first lines?
Psst I found this at Becky’s Book Blog. Please go check her out!
Also… Thank you to Leah @Leah’s Books for counseling me through this week with the Council of the Ninja Magic Conjuring Cats. I learned a lot. AKA how to be their bitch.
- 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

4 Britons Dead In Ski Resort Tragedy
The exclusive French ski resort of St. Antoine was rocked by news of a second tragedy this week, only days after an avalanche that killed six and left much of the region without power for days.
Now, reports are emerging that in one remote ski chalet, cut off by the avalanche, a “house of horror” situation was unfolding, leaving four Britons dead and two hospitalized.
Are you ready??!
Because this is how I’m treated when I forget the first law of CNMCC HQ is that I am loyal, self-sacrificing, undeserving, beneath and live to give all to the holy trinity that is Pavel, Gomez and Liam. In laymen terms I am the CNMCC bitch. Otherwise…

I see their training of you is going well! And that sounds like a very interesting first line!
Sorry for the late reply… rough news about my friend’s uncle. Yes they are… you’ve helped! And yes I can’t wait to read this one… I should have already but the pub date was pushed back!
