As always First Line Friday comes courtesy of Hoarding Books Blog. I discovered this magic thanks to Crystal at Must Love Reviews.
Today my first line comes from…
“He who fights with monsters should see to it that he himself does not become a monster. -Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil, Aphorism 146“
Yes, the book starts with a quote and as I continue to read this book, this quote is ever so appropriate! So far I am pretty sure I don’t like the main character, but, the jury is still out. Ha, have you read this one? What do you think? What are you currently reading right now?
What an interesting cover!
I’ll share the first line from a book I’m starting this weekend, Courting Mr. Emerson by Melody Carlson.
“George Emerson didn’t need anybody.”
Have a lovely weekend!

Today on my blog, I am sharing the first line from Brunch at Bittersweet Cafe by Carla Laureano. I am loving this book so much. I’m currently just starting chapter 19, so I will share the first line from that chapter here.
“‘A bookstore?’ Justin didn’t mean for his dismay to show in his voice when he pulled up in front of the address Melody had given him, but it escaped all the same.”
Hope you have a really excellent weekend filled with relaxing reading time. 🙂💜📚
