My book beginnings is taken from AS BRIGHT AS HEAVEN by Susan Meissner:
"Morning light shimmers on the apricot horizon as I stand at the place where my baby boy rests. Stouthearted chickadees are singing in the day, just like they have done every other winter's dawn, but when this same sun sets tonight, I will be miles away from them, and inside an unfamiliar house."

Thanks...I do have to admit that I am organized. :)
DeleteThanks for commenting, So many books, so little time.
Intriguing beginning. This week I'm reading Crimson Death by Laurell K. Hamilton from my TBR mountain. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteMy TBR is a mountain too, but I love it as I am sure you love yours.
DeleteThanks for commenting, Kathy.
So many lovely books! I enjoyed the Nicci French (mine had a different title), The Wife Between Us, and A Dangerous Crossing. I definitely want The Woman in the Window.
ReplyDeleteAs for As Bright as Heaven, I am intrigued. Thanks for sharing, and here's mine: “SNAP JUDGMENT”
Oh yes...the Nicci French book was very good.
DeleteThe Wife Between Us and A Dangerous Crossing were books I really enjoyed as well.
Thanks for commenting, Laurel.
Can't wait to read the Meissner book but it probably won't be for a few weeks. Hope you're enjoying it!
ReplyDeleteOh yes...it is very good.
DeleteThe characters are all so sweet.
Thanks for commenting, Mary.
I have Sisters Like Us and The English Life coming on on my list. I'm a big Lauren Willig fan so I'm really excited about that one! Meissner is an author I've been wanting to read and this sounds like a great one!
ReplyDeleteYou will definitely like both books, Katherine.
DeleteI am almost done with As Bright As Heaven - it is wonderful. I hope you get to read one of her books.
