I like the last one the best, no question. I think it's because while all of them were quite descriptive, this one just sort of oozed into my head and sat there. I can hear the branches on the window and the voice whispering.

My favorite book-opening definitely has to be from ICE by Sarah Beth Durst. It begins with a fairytale that a grandmother tells the MC when she's a child. It's magical, gorgeously written and perfect at foreshadowing the adventure that will eventually become the MC's life. I love it!

Uhhhhhh....... yeah..... I'd tell you a great opening, but I'm still reeling from that last one. It was.... Oh, I want this book so badly.

Ok, a few minutes later, I'm kind of drawing a blank. The only thing I can think of is Maggie's prologue in Linger. I kinda loved that. A lot.

I have two favorite opening lines of two of my all time favorite books, so I'll share them both ( ... )

I really enjoyed reading all of those book openings. I can totally understand how it would be frustrating trying to get it right especially if you aren't feeling the dialogue and setting the scene ( ... )
