Aaaaand we have a winner! ProdElektra was the first to get all seven first line quotes right. Impressive. Particularly as #5 is out of print and I wasn't at all sure anyone would pick up on it. Speaking of, ProdElektra, how did you know that one? :)
The answers:
3. How I Live Now by Meg Rosoff4. Westmark by Lloyd Alexander6. The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton7. How Green Was My Valley by Richard Llewellyn
ProdElektra, make sure to contact me and let me know which book you'd like and your mailing address. I, naturally, recommend them all. Highly. Thanks for playing everyone! What are you favorite first lines? I'd love to hear them.
Very impressive, congrats ProdElektra!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite opening line is easy:
"The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed."
Favorite series of all time :) It doesn't get any better than that.
Thea, that's a gooood one. I've got to get back to The Gunslinger.
