First Lines Fridays: July 22, 2022

Published on by CelesteLeave a comment

First Lines Fridays is a weekly feature for book lovers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines?  The rules are as follows:

If you’re using Twitter, don’t forget to use #FirstLinesFridays!
