Welcome to entry #9 for First Lines Fridays! Every week (or whenever the mood strikes), Iโll be sharing the opening line of a bookโno title, no authorโjust the first sentence that sets the whole story in motion.
First Lines Fridays is a weekly post hosted by Wandering Words. In this post instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines.
To do this simply:
- Pick a book off your shelf (it could be your current read or on your TBR) and open to the first page
- Copy the first few lines, but donโt give anything else about the book away just yet โ you need to hook the reader first
- Finallyโฆ reveal the book!
Preface:
I’d never given much thought to how I would die–though I’d had reason enough in the last few months–but even if I had, I would not have imagined it like this.
Do you recognise what line this book is from?
Okay, here’s a hint for you… it’s a popular book with vampires and werewolves.
Still unsure? Here’s your last hint… it’s written by Stephenie Meyer.

About three things I was absolutely positive.
First, Edward was a vampire.
Second, there was a part of him – and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be – that thirsted for my blood.
And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
