This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is opening lines, and I decided to go with the first line from 10 books on my physical TBR! These are all very high on my reading list and seeing some of these opening lines definitely makes me excited to get into a few of them!!
A Winter’s Promise by Christelle Dabos
“It’s often said of old buildings that they have a soul.”
The Toll by Neal Shusterman
“There was no warning.”
Aurora Burning by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
“The disrupter blast hit the Betraskan right in her chest.”
Chain of Gold by Cassandra Clare
“Lucie Herondale was ten years old when she first met the boy in the forest.”
The Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levenseller
“They’ve never found the body of the first and only boy who broke my heart.”
Into the Crooked Place by Alexandra Christo
“Tavia Syn made a living on magic and it was rarely the legal kind.”
These Witches Don’t Burn by Isabel Sterling
“They say there’s a fine line between love and hate.”
Heart of Flames by Nicki Pau Preto
“Veronyka kicked as hard as she could at Tristan’s face.”
Winterwood by Shea Ernshaw
“A boy went missing the night of the storm.”
Flamecaster by Cinda Williams Chima
“Compared to the freezing weather outside, the stable was warm and steamy and alive with the sleepy murmuring of horses.”

The line that caught my attention was this one:
