My Book Beginnings is the same as last week....slow reading week. :)
My book beginnings is taken from I'LL SEE YOU IN PARIS by Michelle Gable:
"Maybe she'll surprise us," Eric said. They walked along the path toward the barn, Annie's sandals crunching against the gravel. It was eighty degrees, unusually warm for that time of year, an Indian summer. The sun was bright, the hillsides green and flashing. The leaves had not yet begun to change."
Another book that goes back and forth in time, and that blue book on the cover tells the story. :)
I am enjoying this book.

IN ANOTHER LIFE by Julie Christine Johnson
IN ANOTHER LIFE by Julie Christine Johnson
Beautiful writing, and a wonderful debut novel.
Isn't that cover gorgeous?
It will be reviewed on my blog on February 22, 2016.
