First Line Friday #145

 

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.


"Don't blame me if you're disappointed. You've been warned." 

Eleanor and I absolutely LOVE this series. Such fun middle-grade murder mysteries, highly recommend them all!

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!

    2. 2017. Maybe it's another one of those that never got published in the US?

    1. This is such a fun series, Eleanor and I love it. Myrtle is a Young Lady of Quality...who happens to always find a murder, or a murder finds her. The writing is fantastic and we were able to get an ARC of book four that we are almost done with now.

  5. I'm currently reading Authentically, Izzy by Pepper Basham. It's super cute!
    "In my psychology class we learned that the best way to deal with sensitive artistic personalities like Eli's is to ask questions to help them come to their own conclusions. Directness may lead to internal wounds. Or was that about counseling teenagers? Oh well, I'm sure it works for both."
    Have a great weekend!!!
