Hey everyone! I’m back with another First Line Fridays, hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author, or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines?
Pick a book off your shelf (it could be your current read or on your TBR) and open to the first page.
Copy the first few lines, but don’t give anything else about the book away just yet – you need to hook the reader first!
Finally…..reveal the book.
On the morning we are to leave for our Grand Tour of the Continent, I wake up in bed beside Percy. For a disorienting moment, it’s unclear whether we’ve slept together or simply slept together.
This book is….

I’m 40% of the way through with this book, and not sure if I’m liking it or not. Will continue it though because where I currently am, I need a solution to something. I’ve mentioned before that I can usually tell a rating while about halfway through (if I get that far)….this is currently sitting at a 3. Either I’m getting more critical in my reading, or I’m just waiting on that one book to blow meaway.
Hi all! I’m Jothany. I want to use this blog as a way to get better at writing reviews on books as well as just a space to release my feelings on books lol plus I’ll update when I participate in readathons. I’m excited for this blog journey!

The first time I started reading this book, I didn’t make it very far. Not even to the 40% where you are now. I set it aside to my DNF pile and walked away. But a year or so later for whatever reason I came back to it in audiobook format and I’m so glad I did! Pretty sure I ended up giving it 5 stars!
this tag honestly sounds like so much fun! I totally didn’t expect / guess what the book would be, lol. but I hope it gets better for you soon, if not DNF it. don’t waste you time 🙂

I have the audiobook and I got that far in one night. Since then I haven’t picked it up. I want to finish it though so maybe I’ll pick it up soon.
