Good morning (or afternoon...depending on your time zone) and welcome to this week's edition of First Line Fridays!
This week I have the honor of sharing with you a brand new book from one of my very favorite authors! Jen Turano's books captured my heart from the moment I began After a Fashion almost two years ago. Her style is unique and the humour makes me laugh out loud quite often. Look for my review for Finding Margo coming soon! I will give you a hint though...I loved it! Now...on to my first line!
Present Day
"With the roar of the crowd still reverberating in her ears, Margo Hartman stepped past one of her many bodyguards and into the relative quiet of the dressing room she'd been assigned for the evening."

"What will you do now?" The gentle nudge came from Mrs. Franklin hours after Prosperity Anne Jones laid her mother to rest in the church graveyard.

DeleteThe first inkling Miss Temperance Flowerdew had that her rather mundane sort of day was about to turn anything but mundane, happened when a closed carriage trundled up beside her, keeping pace with her every step as she walked down the sidewalk adjacent to Broadway. ~ Yes, I know, it's not from a real book yet - but since I'm in the dreaded midst of a first draft - this is all I've been reading lately - And, the first line probably won't stay like that - but for now...I'm sticking with it:) Thanks for reading "Finding Margo!"
ReplyDeleteEeeeeek! I just think you are incredible!!! Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteSQUEEEE!!!! I'm so excited for the release of Finding Margo!!!!
