Welcome to First Line Friday, hosted by Reading is my SuperPower! It’s time to grab the book you’re reading, and share the first line!
This week I started reading Everything is Just Beginning by Erin Bartels. So far I’m enjoying it. Having grown up in the 80’s and 90’s, I can really picture myself listening to some of the music she references and that’s made it really fun!

AmazonAn Immersive Story of Music, Struggle, and Starting Over from an Award-Winning Author
Michael Sullivan is a talented lyricist and a decent guitarist, but since he was kicked out of his band (and his apartment), he's not sure he'll ever get a record deal. Living with his loser uncle in a beat-up trailer and working a dead-end job, Michael has little reason to hope for a better future. Until the invitation for a swanky New Year's Eve party shows up in the mailbox. It's for his uncle, with whom he shares his name, but his uncle is going out of town . . .
On the effervescent night of December 31, 1989--as the Berlin Wall is coming down, the Soviet Union is inching toward democracy, and anything seems possible--Michael will cross paths with the accomplished and enigmatic young heir to a fading musical dynasty, forever altering both of their futures.
Award-winning novelist Erin Bartels enchants with this story of two lonely souls who have exactly what the other one needs--if they could simply turn their focus from what is ending to what is just beginning.

My first line comes from Cold Light of Day by Elizabeth Goddard:
Southeast Alaska. August
Autumn Long had no plans to give up without a fight, even though it might be killing her a little every day.
A fierce Alaskan wind had kicked up over Kachemak Bay, causing large, choppy waves to churn ferociously.

I’m currently reading Husband Auditions by Angela Ruth Strong. It’s fun!
“We pay the day-use fee and get the indoor pool to ourselves for the moment.”
I hope you have a great weekend! 😀❤️📚
I love your graphics! I’m just starting Bound by a Secret by Jolene Navarro. The first line is: “Greyson McKinsey rolled his neck and stared at the Texas sky above him.” Hope you have a great week!
