First Line Friday #137

First Line Friday is hosted once again by Carrie at Reading is my Superpower. You can visit HERE to go directly to the FLF page of her blog.

Playing along is easy: open the book nearest you and share the first line. Then check out the link to see the other first lines posted this week.


The Shrove Tuesday festivities had a theme to them, and that theme was the heart.

Leave a comment and let me know what you think, and leave a link to your FLF so I can stop by to see what you've posted this week.

Happy Reading!

    Now I'm curious how the theme of the heart plays out. Good opening.

      It's a great read so far. But I am always a sucker for good Tudor non-fiction

    I must get back into the Tudors at some point............. My first line:

    "In a cold February dawn in 2010, two small SUVs and a four-door pickup truck headed down a dirt road in the mountains of southern Afghanistan". Kill Chain - Drones and the Rise of High-Tech Assassins by Andrew Cockburn

      Can't go wrong with a good book about the Tudors. Sometimes I feel like I have read everything there possibly is to read, but I don't think I will ever stop picking up books about them.
