Friday Firsts #14

The first line can make or break a reader’s interest. Just how well did the author pull you in to the story with their first sentence? To participate in this weekly book meme is extremely easy.

Grab the book you are currently reading and open to the first page.
Write down the first sentence in the first paragraph.
Create a blog post with this information. (Make sure to include the title & author of the book you are using. Even an ISBN helps!)
Did this first sentence help draw you into the story? Why or why not?

It was hardly the time or the place to be thinking about a horse, any horse, the man decided, even Man O’ War. — Man o’ War, Walter Farley

I love horses so this first line brings me right in esp. since Man O’ War is my all time favorite race horse.
