Hello, my fellow book lovers and welcome to this edition of Book Beginnings. Pop on over to A Few More Pages to see this and other blogger’s posts about books they are reading now.
My first lines come from “Explosive Eighteen” by Janet Evanovich. Ms. Evanovich is great at cranking out funny and entertaining easy reads, and this is no exception. All of the Stephanie Plum books are great! If you want to laugh out loud, try her books.
“New Jersey was 40,000 feet below me, obscured by cloud cover. Heaven was above me, beyond the thin skin of the plan. And hell was sitting four rows back. Okay, maybe hell was too strong. Maybe it was just purgatory.”
What has Stephanie got herself into this time? Well, you will just have to pick up this book and find out. It is a heck of a ride!

I’m always looking for new books to recommend to our book club – definitely going to check this one out!
Hope you and your book club enjoy this book! I know I did. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
That’s a hilarious opening! Makes me want to read the book, as it totally gives me an idea of the character (and some setting – obviously a plane!).
I need to try some of her books. I’ve got a girlfriend who is a private eye and she just loves them.
Thanks for joining me on Book Beginnings! I am very excited to take over hosting duties.

I am so glad that you are going to keep Book Beginnings going! This meme has brought out a whole other side of my blog. Can’t wait to get familiar with your blog, too.
Oh my, it sounds like this is not going to be a pleasant flight. In fact I had a passenger that could be described that same way sitting directly behind me on the last flight I took. I’ll have to take a look at this book.
Poor Stephanie. Always in trouble. I haven’t read this one yet. Great beginning.
