Blackfriars was such a great book!
My first line is from The Vanishing at Loxby Manor by Abigail Wilson:
I knew something was terribly wrong the moment I stepped foot back inside Loxby Manor- the pervasive restlessness of the servants, the strained silence of the front room.

Over on my blog I am sharing the first line from The Hesitant Heiress by Dawn Crandall.
“Miss Brigham, may I have a word with you?” Professor Silvious strolled down the aisle toward the stage of the Boston Conservatory of Music’s auditorium.

Over on my blog I’m sharing from Shadows of the White City by Jocelyn Green:https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2021/01/29/first-line-friday-170-2/. It’s a great story! Currently, though, I’m reading Beauty Among Ruins by J’Nell Ciesielski, so I’ll share from there.
“‘What are you doing?’ Lily’s fingers fumbled with the ends of the linen as she double knotted them and Matron Strom stomped to a halt next to her.”
Hope you have a great weekend! 😀❤📚
