First Line Friday

 Hosted by Reading is my Superpower



Prologue

Dobryzov Castle, Russia

January 1917

“She kissed Jack hard on the mouth, then aimed her Beretta over his Shoulder and fired a round of shots down the medieval corridor of Dobryzov Castle.”

 

This first line gives me Black Widow and Winter Soldiers vibes. So, if that’s what the author was going for it worked.

  2. My book this week is Authentically Izzy by Pepper Basham:
    Prologue
    Dear readers,
    This is a cautionary tale.
    A tale of family, literary classics, podiatry, matchmaking, Shakespeare, and distance.

  3. I have this book on my tbr shelf. I'm starting the novella collection Targeted, and the first line is from "On the Run" by Lynette Eason: "Daria Nevsky slammed the door of her Ford F-150 truck and tucked her jacket under her chin to ward off the chill of the November wind." Have a great week!
