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!
If you’re sharing on social media, don’t forget to use #FirstLinesFridays!
Hello, reader!
We’ve arrived at the end of the (typical) work week, which means it’s time for another First Lines Friday! This week, I’m featuring a romance that I’m hoping to dive into soon. I need a bit of an escape and I think this book would do the trick.
So let’s see if the first line can pull me in.
The Line(s):
“When Jordan Carter tells his family the story of how he met the love of his life, it will go a little something like this…”
