  1. My first line is from Chapter 16 of Flights of Fancy by Jen Turano:

  3. Sounds good. I hope you are enjoying it. This week I am spotlighting The Wild Dead by Carrie Vaughn - a dystopian mystery. Happy reading!

  4. Love Becky Wade books! Happy Friday! My first line is from "Through the Shadows" by Karen Barnett:

    "Elizabeth King held her fingers against the ivory keys, refusing to stir as the final chord faded and silence descended on the parlor."

  5. I loved this book. Becky Wade is awesome. ๐Ÿ˜€

    Happy Friday!

    Today on my blog I'm sharing the first paragraph from A Bound Heart by Laura Frantz. I'm currently on chapter 12, so I'll leave the first line from there.

    "Lark smiled as the long-awaited bairn made his entry into the rain-washed July day."

    It's such a good book!

    Hope you have a great day and a wonderful weekend full of rest and good reading time! ๐Ÿ˜€❤๐Ÿ“š

  10. Sorry I'm a bit late coming around this week again! On my blog I featured With This Pledge by Tamera Alexander but I'm currently reading The Teacher's Bride by Kathleen Fuller so I'll share that first line here: "I can't believe she came here without letting us know ahead of time." Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
