A little bit of fun on a Friday, this weekly meme is hosted by A Few More Pages.
I'll share the first line (or two) of the book I'm currently reading (including the title and author) and let you know what my first impressions are - good or bad!

Having just read Room by Emma Donoghue (which I can't say I enjoyed all that much), I thought I'd read another of her books, so here's the beginning from The Sealed Letter.

This beginning sounds like the beginning of a book I'm really going to enjoy. It's based on the details of a scandalous divorce that apparently gripped England in 1864. Each sentence just keeps getting better and better. I love historical fiction!
Oh, I do like the sound of this one! Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear what you thought when you finish the book. I was also not thrilled with Room but this one looks like it might be better.
ReplyDeleteWell the first thing I've noticed is that it couldn't be more different to 'Room'! I like the style of this - it sounds like a beautiful historical romance :)
ReplyDeleteI like the beginning, it sounds good. However, I'm not that fond of historical romance, and I really liked Room. We shall see, if I get around to reading it :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good start off to the book. :) I hope you enjoy it better than Room, though I can see why it would be a difficult book to really enjoy.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, I nominated your blog for an award. :) Please check it out.
