Introducing a new book blog meme: Friday Firsts

The first line can make or break a reader’s interest. Just how well did the author pull you in to the story with their first sentence? To participate in this weekly book meme is extremely easy.

  • 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?
  • Grab an image code:

  • Come back to this blog post, hosted on WellReadReviews.com and add your direct link to Mr. Linky!

That’s it :)

Here is my Friday Firsts: Random Magic by Sasha Soren (ISBN: 978-0-9797774-1-7)

It’s been noted, of course, that quite interesting things can happen on dark and stormy nights, particularly in castles.

Hmmm – what is going to happen in a castle? This made me wonder and want to continue to read.
