Each Tuesday, Vicki, from I’d Rather Be At The Beach hosts First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros where readers post the opening paragraph(s) of a book that they are reading or plan to read. I loved this author's last book, All the Ugly and Wonderful Things.

"People talk about having an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other. I had a pair of imaginary bill collectors, so no matter which way I turned, there was somebody to remind me I needed money. That's how I ended up on the train at four o'clock in the morning with my nephew and a hundred pounds of weed."
What do you think about this intro - read more or pass?
I think I would keep reading. I'm a sucker for characters who are struggling and make decisions that never thought they would.
ReplyDeleteThe intro is very visual and would keep me reading to find out more.
