First Chapter (and some other stuff)

Today is Tuesday!  Time to share a First paragraph from a book we want to read and to see if it entices you--to either read it or join along with Diane at Bibliophile by the Sea in her weekly meme.

Here is the first paragraph from a book I am starting this morning:

I left my wedding dress hanging in a tree somewhere in North Dakota.

That's it.  I love one line opening paragraphs.

I  really do love the first line  in this book tho, not just the fact that it was one line and easy to copy.  I would read this, because  the first line does entice me, and a few of my friends have read it and loved it,  but also I have to read it for one of my book-clubs this month.

So, there is no getting out of this one.

Not that I would want to.

The book?

Julia's Chocolates

by

Cathy Lamb

The book club?

The Lit Wits

(this isn't all of  them/us.  5 of us  were not there, one wouldn't let me take her picture and I was taking the pictures)

We were having wine and appetizers and discussing  Wife 22, in my backyard, last month.

I love these ladies!

And not to leave anyone out...

my other book club

Totally Lit!

(also in my backyard.  Once every couple of years it works out that I am hosting both book-clubs on the same week.)

We have wine  (again) and appetizers (again).

I love these ladies too!

They are all probably going to kill me when they see that I've posted the pictures I've taken.
So, if I'm not back on here for a while, you will know what happened.

I just wanted to say that my book club nights are the best nights of the month for me!

(except of course, the nights I spend with the Handyman)

(especially when we fall asleep in our chairs at 8:30 while trying to stay awake to watch a TV show--very exciting!)

(I am joking of course---every night with the Handyman is exciting. )

But I love my book-clubs.  I LOVE them.

And I love to discuss books with them, so  I am very much looking forward to reading Julia's Chocolates.
