Please join me every Friday to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you are reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires. Please remember to include the title of the book and the author’s name.
EARLY BIRDS & SLOWPOKES: This weekly post goes up Thursday evening for those who like to get their posts up and linked early on. But feel free to add a link all week.
FACEBOOK: Rose City Reader has a Facebook page where I post about new and favorite books, book events, and other bookish tidbits, as well as link to blog posts. I'd love a "Like" on the page! You can go to the page here to Like it. I am happy to Like you back if you have a blog or professional Facebook page, so please leave a comment with a link and I will find you.
TWITTER, ETC: If you are on Twitter, Instagram, Google+, or other social media, please post using the hash tag #BookBeginnings. I try to follow all Book Beginnings participants on whatever interweb sites you are on, so please let me know if I have missed any and I will catch up.
TIE IN: The Friday 56 hosted by Freda's Voice is a natural tie in with this event and there is a lot of cross over, so many people combine the two. The idea is to post a teaser from page 56 of the book you are reading and share a link to your post. Find details and the Linky for your Friday 56 post on Freda’s Voice.
YOUR BOOK BEGINNING
MY BOOK BEGINNING
I've been called a crazy cat lady all my life, but I never knew what crazy was until now.
Cat's Paw by Mollie Hunt. This third installment in Hunt's Crazy Cat Lady mystery series follows Cat's Eyes and Copy Cats.
Lynley Cannon may be retired and volunteering for her local cat shelter, but she has a way of falling into adventures! In Cat's Paw, Lynley accepts an invitation to volunteer at the Cloverleaf Animal Shelter on its own island in the San Juans, but things turn from tranquil to terrifying when dead bodies turn up at the northwest retreat.
Sounds interesting! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like it could be cute! :)
ReplyDeleteI love crazy, and the thought of "even crazier" is delightful. Enjoy.

Great choice!! I haven't heard of this one yet but it sounds good. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for hosting. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun cozy mystery series. Cute cover too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting Book Beginnings.
This sounds good! I've been reading dark and dysfunctional lately so I'm definitely wanting a cozy right now though the one I'm about to start is set in Ireland!
ReplyDeleteHi Gilion,
ReplyDeleteI love that opening line, I can relate to it totally right now.
I also love a good murder mystery, but I'm afraid this one definitely wouldn't be for me, as I have a fear of and aversion to, cats!
I do hope that you enjoy the book however, thanks for sharing and thank you for continuing to host BBOF :)

I love cats so any book with CAT in the title is an immediate magnet for me.
