Book Beginnings

December 21, 2012 by pictureperfectcooking

Hello, again!  It’s Friday so it is time for another Book Beginnings post.  Please join me and other bloggers at Rose City Reader for this fun and informative link party.  I am always amazed at the various genres of book that we all read and enjoy!

Today, my first lines come from Karen White’s book, “The Color of Light”:

“Jillian Parrish stood barefoot in her backyard, her toes curled into the cool grass, and wrapped her hands around the neck of her telescope.”

I think that this is a very descriptive opening line and it makes you feel like Jillian is seriously searching for something and she is.  This was an enjoyable book that is a fairly easy read.

    From the beginning it sounds like a really fun book.

    The first lines certainly vividly set the scene! I can see her now standing there. Your header photo caught my eye. I think I will poke around here for a bit to check out your recipes. 😉
