First Line Friday is a weekly feature and simple to do - grab the book nearest you and post the first line. Carrie hosts this over on her blog Reading is my Superpower.

"This is a history of ancient Persia. It is unlike other histories of Persia (not that there have been many). This history uses genuine, indigenous, ancient Persian sources to tell a very different story from the one we might be familiar with, the one moulded around ancient Greek accounts."

I think I have that one! It was a NetGalley I was sent but never read. I'm a bad, bad, man.
Delete"Greetings my friends. You are all interested in Plan 9 From Outer
Space, for that is what you and I will be reading about for the rest[!]
of this book. And as this book will prove, Plan 9 is more than a
movie, it’s a way of life. A password. A secret handshake that
signifies membership in very select group: smart folks with big
hearts and evolved senses of humor. I’m speaking, of course,
about weirdos." - Plan 9 from Outer Space
Happy Saturday!

I'm just starting No Place Like Home by Jess Mastorakos.

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! 🙂❤️📚
The whole last month of school was so chaotic, I am just now finally getting back to everyone. So glad the year is over!
