We’re back with another Sundays in Bed With… meme! This meme dares to ask you what book has been in your bed this morning and is hosted by Midnight Book Girl. Come share what book you’ve spent your time reading in bed or wish you had time to read today.

I’ve got three reads on at the minute but I think I’ll be spending the rest of my Sunday night in bed with Lady Derring Takes A Lover by Julie Anne Long. I’ve been meaning to read JAL’s books for a while now and am excited to read more. I’m only at 16% but am enjoying it so far!

I’ve spent my Sunday in bed reading Howl’s Moving Castle. This is my buddy read with Becky and it’s been an interesting experience so far! I keep comparing it to the movie because it’s one of my faves (in Ghilbi and general)! There are major differences but I’m not mad about it. It’s a whimsical

#FirstLinesFriday: 6 December 2024

Happy Friday book lovers! We’re back with another First Lines Friday, a weekly feature for book lovers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines? Here are the rules:

  • 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 don’t give anything else about the book away just yet – you need to hook the reader first
  • Finally… reveal the book!

First lines:

“Lalo Villalobos hated many things. Long walks, crowded streets, unkempt suits, people. But one thing he hated above all else was his word not being taken seriously. Tonight, he would prove to everyone he was no fool.”

I’m spending my Sunday night reading A Taste of Gold and Iron. I’ve been meaning to pick this up for ages and I came across it in my Kindle TBR the other day so I decided to give it a go. I found the world confusing initially but I’m getting into it now at 19%!

TBH, I might just end my night finishing Poison in their Hearts, which is my buddy read with Julie & Leslie. I need to know what happens! 🫣

First lines:

“Primus Grey waited in the dark behind his print shop for his contact to arrive. Although she’d passed him secret information about the British before, he was the only member of the Sons of Liberty to know her true identity. To the others she was known only as Lady Midnight, the code name he’d bestowed upon her in honor of the time she usually appeared.”
