First Chapter, First Paragraph is one of the two memes that I will be alternating on Thursdays in place of my Ink & Batter posts during the summer, when I won't be baking due to the heat!
I discovered this meme via the ladies of My Shelf Confessions, and it is hosted on Tuesdays by Bibliophile by the Sea. But since I already have my blog tours posts and Tell Me Tuesdays, I thought that it'd work best on Thursdays for me!
The idea of this meme/feature is quite self-explanatory from its name, we share the first paragraph of the first chapter of our current read! Quite a good teaser for others to read and see if they'd be intrigued!
This week I'm sharing a bit of an ARC I got last week, that is on my list of ARC August! Thank you LeighAnn for it to sending me! I cannot wait to see what's coming for Sophie in this one!
"In my eighteen years on this planet, I'd learned I could distract a lot of people with pretty words, expensive gifts, and a sweet smile.
I'd also learned that those things rarely worked on my father, which meant that at this exact moment, I was in a shit ton of trouble"
What do you think? Would you want to know more?
What are you reading right now?
YEP. My typical escape routes never worked on my father either, LOL. And I'm still reading Jane Yellowrock #2 ;)
ReplyDeleteI never had any problems dealing with my dad but my mum was the tougher one! ;)
DeleteI just read Nick's review of this and she absolutely loved it, so I can't wait for your full review Pili! This definitely sounds like my kind of book, and now I'm super curious about this shit ton of trouble she's in with her father:)
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying this one and you know I'm not a big fan of contemporaries, so I hope you'll read this one, Jenny!
DeleteYAY for getting a review copy! I hope you love it, Pili :)
ReplyDeleteAlyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Thanks Alyssa! I really am enjoying it loads so far!
DeleteI've been meaning to try her contemporaries and you reminded me that I need to get on that!
ReplyDelete.yar
I very much have enjoyed Solving for Ex and this one (just finished!), I do hope you'll enjoy them!
DeleteI've yet try any of Ms. Kopan's contemporary books, but her paranormal ones are amazing! I highly recommend them, and I'll definitely have to check this out :)
ReplyDeleteI love her paranormals too, so I highly recommend the contemporaries too, Melissa!
DeleteHah :D Great teaser Pili. <3 Thank you for sharing :) I hope you are enjoying this book ;p It is not for me, but maybe one day ;p
ReplyDeleteThank you sweetie!
DeleteI loved Solving for Ex, I hope this one is just as great!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick, Pili!
If you loved Solving for Ex, you'll love seeing Sophia in this one, Lis!!
