Book Beginnings on Friday
is a bookish meme now
sponsored by Rose City Reader (who originally inspired the meme).
Here's what you do: Share the first line
(or two) of the book you are currently
reading on your blog or in the comments
section. Include the title and author so
we know what you're reading. Then, if you
are so moved, let us know what your
first impressions were based on that first line
and if you did or did not like that sentence. Link up each week
at Gilion's place.
Here is the first line from The Murder Stone by Charles Todd:
It always stood in the back garden--what my cousins called the Murder Stone.
{Looks like we'll learn what that Murder Stone is right away....}
The Friday 56 is a bookish meme
sponsored by Freda's Voice. It is really easy to
participate. Just grab a book, any book, and turn
to page 56. Find a sentence that grabs you and
post it.And here's my selection from page 56 of The Murder Stone by Charles Todd:
Do you think you could be so wrong about a man you've loved all your life? Do you really believe you could be such a poor judge of his character?
Great snippets! Definitely wonder what a murder stone is.
