I’m so glad it’s Friday! Are you?
Time to grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line!
BUT WAIT!
This week, instead of the first line of the book, let’s do something crazy and comment with the first line of page 24 (being as it’s the 24th of June and all).
The book I’m featuring today is The Ringmaster’s Wife by Kristy Cambron.
And the first line from page 24 is….
“And you should meet it head-on.”
So… what’s your First Line (from page 24) on this Friday?
Let me know in the comments and then head over to these friends to see their First Lines:
If you’d like to join us on your blog for First Line Fridays, shoot me an email and let me know! 🙂

A white-haired man stood on the top rung of a ladder that reached to the very top of one of the huge vats of fermenting wine.
Not very exciting compared to some of the comments!

I’m actually reading a book on Kindle and have no idea what page I’m on, so I’ll just post the first line of the page I’m on:

Poor Lady Ingham was in despair.
Sylvester, by Georgette Heyer
That doesn’t sound promising for poor Lady Ingham 😉
Well, as in most Heyer, despair is really more akin to a bit of confusion and social embarrassment that will be delightfully resolved, but we haven’t gotten there yet. 😀
Lol!

“Adreano was intelligent enough to be aware that there might be a contradiction inherent in these twinned sources of ire, but he was also young enough and had drunk a more than sufficient quantity of khav laced with Senzian brandy, for that awareness to remain well below the level of his conscious thoughts.”
TIGANA – Guy Gavriel Kay
gotta watch out for that brandy 😉
