Book Beginnings on Friday (10)

Book Beginnings on Friday is a new meme hosted by Becky at Page Turners. Anyone can participate; just share the opening sentence of your current read, making sure that you include the title and author so others know what you're reading. If you'd like, share with everyone why you do, or do not, like the sentence.

So technically I finished this book yesterday but I loved the first sentence so much that I wanted to use it because the first sentence of the book I'm currently reading is rather dull.


Spirit Bound by Richelle Mead

There's a big difference between death threats and love letters–even if the person writing the death threats still claims to actually love you.

Isn't that a great first sentence? Spirit Bound is book five in the Vampire Academy series and the final book, The Last Sacrifice, will be published in December. If you aren't familiar with the series and are interested in knowing more, you can read my review of Vampire Academy. Be careful not to read book descriptions of the later books in the series before you read the first book (like I did unfortunately) because they contain spoilers!

  12. I just read this one as well- though I have to say that I was a little bit disappointed with the way the whole Dimitri thing was handled; we knew what was going to happen, and it happened. :( Although I'm not complaining... it wasn't exactly suspenseful!
