That look like a fun book! I love the first line. Last night I started reading Soul Raging by Ronie Kendig. The first line is: “The devil was once an angel.”

Ha! That’s a great first line! I’m currently reading the second novella in The Kissing Tree which is by Karen Witemeyer. The first line of that novella is “Illogical business proposals made Barnabas Ackerly’s skin itch, but this one irritated like a hundred mosquito bites treated with a poison ivy poultice.”

“I have a bad feeling about this, Father.” Meredoch felt a scowl contorting his face.
My first line comes from the book Succession by Brett Armstrong.

I’m sharing the first line of chapter 19 of The Love Note by Joanna Politano:
If I should happen to fall in love, the outcome of such a plight depends, like any big fall, on who is there to catch me.
