✏️ #FirstLineFriday: Control Freak by Brianna Hale

CONTROL FREAK.
The words are keyed in eight-inch spiky letters down the length of my BMW.

Isn’t it nice when a book’s opening line is something you can relate to? I don’t like not having control and this applies to every aspect of my life. I’m sure I drive some people crazy but hey, no one ever keyed my car so at least not too bad right? lol!

This book is about two characters with two different kinds of control issues. If you like a “nice” Daddy book with some heavy subject, check this one out.

✏️ #FirstLineFriday: Broken by Megan Hart

This month my name is Mary, and apparently I’m as contrary as the nursery rhyme.

I have to admit, I didn’t know the nursery rhyme the first sentence referring to, but it doesn’t matter because the story gripped me right from the beginning. Very rarely did I give a book a full 5 stars, but this book deserved every single one of it. It’s sexy and heartbreaking. A magic combo that satisfies my needs.

✏️ #FirstLineFriday: Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor

“On the second Sabbat of Twelftmoon, in the city of Weep, a girl fell from the sky.”

The beauty of fantasy book is the world is an infinite possibility. A city called Weep? Blue creatures? I didn’t think something like that would appeal to me, but I was pleasantly surprised by this one. It’s different. More gentle than typical YA Fantasy that I read and beautifully written.

✏️ #FirstLineFriday: Verity by Colleen Hoover

“I hear the crack of his skull before the spattering of the blood reaches me.”

I think it’s apt for a book that plays with reader’s mind to start with such first line. I love books that make me feel “Wait… whaaat?!” and this one is one of very few that managed to do that.
