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.

That's a first line to pull the reader in!
ReplyDeleteRight? And I have no idea yet how it connects because I have not started this one yet. It's a pretty massive tome.
DeleteHappy Saturday!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently reading One Wrong Move by Dani Pettrey. So far, it's pretty creepy. 😄
"Andi slowed as she entered Jeopardy Falls and the speed limit on Juan Tabo dropped to thirty. She cruised along the two-lane road running through the center of town."
I hope you have an excellent weekend. 🙂💕📚
I do like creepy books, I might have to check this one out. Happy Reading!

ReplyDelete'The Road to Wigan Pier' by George Orwell.
Ah, George Orwell. I've never read any of his books.
DeleteThis will be my 5th of his (I think). I used to live around 7 miles from Wigan from ages 10-23 and actually (briefly) went to College there to retake some exams, so I've been there HUNDREDS of times. Its weirdly interesting to hear what it was like in the 1930's. GRIM!
DeleteI will leave you to it then, and trust your reviews!
