Opening Lines
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a freebie so I decided to go with a prompt from around this time last year which was opening lines. Just like last year 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!!

New Year Resolution Book Tag 🏷
I did this tag last year and once again I figured it was the perfect tag to start off the new year!
Fonda Lee – There has been so much hype for Jade City and I want to see how I will feel about it!
The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones
Again classic’s honestly don’t interest me, so probably none 🤷🏾♀️
I’d like to reread Crown of Feathers before I read Heart of Flames
The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton is haunting me at this point…
A big book I would like to read is The Blinding Knife by Brent Weeks
Emily Henry – I’ve only read Beach Read so far and she has so many more books I’m interested in.
The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow
The Gentleman’s Bastard Series by Scott Lynch
