In Which First Line Friday Invites You To An Execution

First Lines Fridays is a weekly feature for readers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, author, or prestige. We try to hook Readers with the first line instead.

Psst, I found this in Becky’s Book Blog. Please go check her out!

Rules:

  • Pick a book off your shelf (it could be a current read, ARC, TBR, or favorite read (Hello, 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.

First Line(s) Friday Time!

First Line Friday

 

I didn’t attend the execution although I was invited. “Invited”- such a civilized word for a string of events that began with my sister’s brains being blown out and his veins being pumped full of state-sanctioned poision.
