Allison at Well-Read Reviews hosts this cool weekly event.
Friday Firsts asks you to:
The first line can make or break a reader’s interest. Just how well did the author pull you in to the story with their first sentence? To participate in this weekly book meme is extremely easy.
- Grab the book you are currently reading and open to the first page.
- Write down the first sentence in the first paragraph.
- Create a blog post with this information. (Make sure to include the title & author of the book you are using. Even an ISBN helps!)
- Did this first sentence help draw you into the story? Why or why not?
- Come back to this blog post, hosted on WellReadReviews.com and add your direct link to Mr. Linky!

I think that's a great first sentence, maybe not the most memorable, but it definitely draws you in!
LOL! Good one!
