First Lines Friday 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 (and provide the Goodreads summary link).
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!
Hard to imagine where a man’s life takes a swerve from the common to the uncommon. For Lochled Thatcher, it may have well been the moment that he stared the girl right in the eye and wondered when they were going to burn her alive.
