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? If you want to make your own post, feel free to use or edit the banner above, and follow the rules below:

Pick a book off your shelf (it could be your current read or on your TBR) 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!

Hello, reader!

We’ve made it to the end of the week and, quite honestly, I don’t know which way is up, haha. This has been a topsy-turvy couple of weeks and I’m kind of glad I don’t have any significant plans going into the weekend. Before the weekend fully hits, though, it’s time for another First Lines Friday post!

The book I’m featuring today is one I’ve just started during my lunch break at work. I’ve had a hold on the audiobook for a minute and it finally became available! And, I’m going to be honest with you, the only reason I’m listening to it is because Richard Armitage is one of the narrators 😂 That man could read me a grocery list and I’d rate it highly! Still, I’m intrigued by the opening of the story and am hoping that continues.

Now, let’s see if you can guess what I’ve started by just the first few lines!

The Line(s):

“It wasn’t love at first sight. I can admit that now. But by the end, I loved her more than I thought it was possible to love another human being.“
