• Grab the book you are currently reading and open to the first page.
• Write down the first sentence in the first paragraph.
• Create a blog post with this information. (Make sure to include the title & author of the book you are using. Even an ISBN helps!)
• Did this first sentence help draw you into the story? Why or why not?

That’s it

Here is my Friday Firsts: The Haunting of Sam Cabot by Mark Edward Hall (ISBN: 978-1-61572-030-9)

It rained off and on throughout the night, cold rails of it falling from the dark sky, beating down into the ashen ruins, perhaps attempting to cleanse the wickedness from them.

Personally, I think the first sentence of this novel set up a spooky premise. Why is this place so wicked and just how wicked? It made me want to find out more.
