Yeah, so I'm all about Elana's first line. :)
Oh, definitely #1. I had no idea it was Elana's until I clicked on it. Can't wait to read that one!
I recognized Elana's first line from her original query that she posted on her blog long ago... CAN'T WAIT to read it!
I picked 1 having no idea it was Elana's but, yup I am REALLY wanting to read that one...nailed it
I recognised the first one right away!
But I do love me some of that 3rd one. Weird New York. Heh.
Love Elana's! Her book is just fantastic!
Gotta go with the first. But YA isn't really my thing ... I'm guessing they're all YA, right?
Number 1, for sure. Now I'm going to go see what it is.
#1 and #2 are the two I would pick up and read. What a great way to entice people to pick up a new book. I love it!
LOL! Man, #1 is KILLER. Ha! I would totally read that. And #3 as well. And hey, I like me some sixteen year olds, too, so yeah. These are all great!
#1!!!! Sounds like a fun read.... sounds like me in middle school haha
One and three for sure! I haven't read Elana's book yet, but I can't wait!
Woohoo! Have some of those on my list! =)
I love that I immediately recognized Elana's!
Definitely the third one, because it's actually true.
Number 1, for sure :)
Ha ha ha! NO QUESTION: #1 :-)
Yay, Elana! :-)
I already knew it was from Possession, but I still have to say that #1 is such a great opening line and I'd pick that one over the rest.
Definitely #1!
I've actually read #3, and #2 is on my list. For some reason though... I'd always thought it's not a good idea to open with "I". And considering most commenters here went for the line that didn't, I'd say that's an accurate thought. :)
Definitely the first one. It presents the most interesting inherent question - that being why?, of course.
This is such a fun exercise - and not just from a reading perspective. It's also a great exercise to help writers focus on what makes a first line work.
First one. Easy.
i'd read them all of course!
Of course, i've already read #1
I have Elana's book at home. Waiting to be read. No time. UGH. It's next though, I'm slowly making my way through my pile!
And I love the line from #3. LOL.
Number three, please! :)
I'd read number three. It had me at "New York"!
#1 and 2 are already on my TBR list and I just added #3!! Thanks!!
#3! I'm wondering what the character thought was so weird about NYC. And, of course, #1--got to read Elana's book! :)
It was a tie between 1 & 3. I definitely want to read Possession! #3 looks cute although I've never heard of it.
I am so excited to read #1. It is preordered on my kindle.
Clearly #1 is awesome. :) Can't wait to read that one!
I REALLY want to read 1.
:-)
Ditto. I'm all about Elana's first line too. Can't freakin' wait!
They all sound wonderful. I love the first line best.
I picked number three. Number one was a maybe and number two was no. I am new to your blog. Enjoying your posts.
