I love the first lines of The Knife of Never Letting Go. I don't have it with me right now, but it's awesome :)
ReplyDeletegreat post!
I feel that first lines should set the tone for the book.
Hi Audrey!
ReplyDeleteI've wanted to read that book for a long time! I'm going to have to see if I can read the excerpt for it now and catch those first lines!
Yes, after you pick a book up to see if you like it, those first few lines you read are what's going to make you keep reading, or put it down.
Thanks for sharing!
