Book Beginnings has a new host, Rose City Reader, and I am so glad she decided to continue this link party! Don’t forget about A Few More Pages. Just because she isn’t able to host anymore, doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve some reader love. Other bloggers link up the books they are reading and their feelings toward them. It is always interesting reading.
Today, I am bringing you the first few lines of the fourth Harry Potter book: Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling. I have really enjoyed the first three and this one is just as good. Ms. Rowling’s imagination and creativity are amazing and I wish I had just a drop of her writing ability!
“The villagers of Little Hangleton still called it "the Riddle House," even though it had been many years since the Riddle family had lived there. It stood on a hill overlooking the village, some of its windows boarded, tiles missing from the roof, and ivy spreading unchecked over its face.”
Doesn’t this sound like a sad place to be? It turns out to be a dangerous place to be for one poor man and a temporary safe haven for another very bad man. This book, along with the others in the series that I have read, are awesome. I can easily understand how these books exploded onto the scene and I am glad I decided to give them a try.
