I'm reviving my participation in the First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros linky hosted by Bibliophile by the Sea. I used to take part in this particular linky earlier on in the year, but then things got busy and my participation fizzled; but I'm back at it! The premise behind Tuesday Intros is to share the first paragraph or so of the book you're reading. I love the premise behind this linky as it's great for book recs, but you also get a feel for an author's writing style.
FIRST LINES
Thirty-two hours of my life are missing.
My best friend, Lydia, tells me to imagine those hours like old clothes in the back of a dark closet. Shut my eyes. Open the door. Move things around. Search.
The things I do remember, I'd rather not.
WOULD YOU CONTINUE READING?

DeleteI listened to the audio of this on and thought it was pretty good. enjoy
ReplyDeleteThanks - I've heard praise from a number of other readers. Glad you enjoyed :-)
DeleteChilling. I wish I could re-read this book for the first time again!! I do hope you're enjoying it (don't tell me if you're not because I'll be crushed, haha!!).
ReplyDeleteI love rereading, but of course nothing is like your very first impression of a book.
DeleteHaha - I'm still quite early on in the book, but I'm enjoying so far!
This one is already on my wish list... enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThank you - so far, so good!
DeleteThis is on my wish list too. I had kind of forgotten about it (no pun intended!) but now I need to correct that.
ReplyDeleteTitles easily get lost in our wishlist - I hope you get to it at some point!
DeleteI loved this one! Wow, there were lots of twists...some I didn't see coming. Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI love unexpected twists! That intrigues me all the more regarding this title.
DeleteIt sounds a bit creepy but like one of those books that you can't help but keep reading because you have to know what happens next. Good one! Here's the link to my Tuesday intro and teaser: http://wp.me/p4DMf0-1i9
ReplyDeleteIt feels very much like that so far!
DeleteSounds scary. The opening makes me want to know what happened and whether or not she ever remembers. I'll read this one.
ReplyDeleteThank you for leaving a comment on my blog today.

ReplyDeleteIt's that kind of opening, and the story continues in the same way!
DeleteI loved this book! How are you liking it so far?
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying it... Although I'm still quite early on in to the read. I'm glad you enjoyed :-)
DeleteI don't know what's happened this week but everyone is featuring books I've read and loved - including this one. A great start to an unsettling read.
ReplyDeleteSounds like we're all in for some great reads this week! I get that unsettling feeling already, and I'm quite early on into the book; keen to see where it's all leading.
