Friday Book Beginnings & Book Blogger Hop
Book Beginnings on Fridays by Rose City Reader - Share the opening sentence (or so) of the book you are reading this week. You can also share from a book that caught your fancy, even if you are not reading it right now.
"Sing me, O Muse, the unheroic morning. When the bruised world begins to fracture for them all." The Brides of Maracoor by Gregory Maguire
The book gets off to a pretty, lyrical start with a small sense of foreboding. I couldn't resist seeing what happens next.
Q: If you had to, would you pass your book collection on to someone special? If not, what would you prefer your family or friends do with your books after you’re gone? (submitted by Billy @ Coffee-Addicted Writer)
A: If I had to, I would pass it on to my two nieces. If they don't want the whole thing, they can pick the titles they do want and donate the rest.
Quite a lyrical opening, indeed! I hope you enjoy to whole story :-)
ReplyDeleteit was really good!
DeleteI think my younger sister may want some of my books. If not, I’d rather they be donated to a library, a community organization, or passed along to other readers who will actually open them.Happy Reading!
ReplyDeletei definitely would prefer they were donated to readers in need if my nieces don't want them.
DeleteI've only ever read Wicked - I guess I didn't realize there was a spinoff. :)
ReplyDeleteWicked got turned into a series...and then inspired this spinoff of that series... so far i like it.
