Happy Friday! It's time for First Line Fridays, hosted by Hoarding Books.
It's time to grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line. Today on First Line Friday, I'm featuring Finding Lady Enderly by Joanna Davidson Politano.
And the first line is ...
For one blessed moment I was beautiful.
About the book...
A rag woman in London's east end meets a handsome stranger who offers her a chance to remake herself at Rothburne Abbey. But something about the abbey is unsettling. Will uncovering its secrets ruin her life?
Let me know the first line of the book closest to you and then head over to Hoarding Books to see who else is participating.

Today on my blog I am sharing the first line from Finding Lady Enderly by Joanna Davidson Politano: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2019/08/22/first-line-friday-98/. I am just getting into the book, so I will share from chapter 2.
"I clutched the edge of my seat and rested my forehead on the shuddering train window."
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading! 🙂💚📚
Ha! I guess great minds do think alike, Nicole :)
DeleteHappy reading to you, as well!
Mine was Lady Enderly also!
ReplyDeleteIt appears to be a popular book, Paula :)
DeleteHappy Friday! Today I'm sharing the first lines from You Belong With Me by Tari Faris: "Was she really the only one left who cared about this town?"

I haven't read that book yet, Jolene. Thanks for sharing.
DeleteHappy reading!

ReplyDeleteToday on my blog I shared the first line from King's Shadow by Angela Hunt but it's also my current read so I'll share the first line from chapter 23 here: "Anyone who studied Herod in the days following Aristobulus's death would not doubt his deep and sincere grief." Happy reading!
I recently finished that book, Becca. I really enjoyed it.
DeleteHappy reading!
Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteOn my blog, I shared the first couple of lines of a book I recently finished - The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang. Here, though, I'll be sharing the first lines of one of the books I'm currently reading - Wild Savage Stars by Kristina Perez.
"The waves mocked her.
Discordant laughter swelled in Branwen's mind and twisted her heart. She couldn't remain on the ship one moment longer. Her skin itched."
Wild Savage Stars is the sequel to Kristina Perez's Sweet Black Waves, which is a Tristan & Eseult retelling. I'm enjoying it so far and I hope you liked the first few lines I shared.
Hope you have a great weekend!
Thanks for sharing, Rachel. I haven't read that book, but it sounds interesting.
DeleteHappy reading and have a nice weekend!
