First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros - The Good Sister; Sally Hepworth



Welcome to First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros hosted by Yvonne@ Socrates Book Reviews. Each week readers post the first paragraph (or 2) of a book we are reading or plan to read soon.

The Good Sister; Sally Hepworth
St. Martin's Press - 2021

JOURNAL OF ROSE INGRID CASTLE

It's been three months since Owen left. Left. or left me--like so many things in the adult world, it's all a bit gray. e took a job in London; a work opportunity, ostensibly. It's not that I wasn't invited, but it was clear to both of us that I couldn't go. That's another thing about the adult world: responsibilities. In my case, one particular responsibility. Fern.

This is our book group read for October. What do you think -- read more or pass? I hope to start it over the weekend when I finish up something in progress.

    Yeah I've enjoyed one of Hepworth's books ... so I think keep going. It should be decent.

    It didn't have much of a build up for me.

    I've read this one--and think you'll have a lot to discuss with your book group.

    I'd keep reading. I've heard good things about this author and I like the writing style in the first paragraph.

    I keep thinking I've read this one, but I don't remember the first paragraph so must look it up. I'd read on.

      I just started this for my book group next week and the story is quite the page-turner. It seems like it will make a good discussion book already.
