First Lines Fridays is a weekly feature for book lovers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines?

  • Pick a book off your shelf (it could be your current read or on your TBR) and open to the first page
  • Copy the first few lines, but don’t give anything else about the book away just yet – you need to hook the reader first
  • Finally… reveal the book!

I’ve completed 32 ARC reviews out of the total 53 for which I have been approved. I now have 20 unread books available to read on my shelf, which is once again the most I’ve ever had at one time. The reviews I completed in the last month were Obsidian, Midnight Horizon, Bluebird, and Age of Ash.
