1. Pick 10 of your favorite books.
2. Post the first sentence of each book. (If one sentence seems too short, post two or three!)
3. Let everyone try to guess the titles and authors of your books!


1. You think you know how this story is going to end, but you don't.
2. The library is cool and smells like carpet cleaner, although all I can see is marble.
3. Dear friend, I am writing to you because she said you listen and understand and didn't try to sleep with that person at that party even though you could have. "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" by Stephen Chbosky. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] oyasumi_nasai!
4. It was November.
5. My sister Kwan believes she has yin eyes.
6. From the crumpled bed the wife said, "I think today's the day."
7. On December 8th, 1915, Meggie Cleary had her fourth birthday.
8. Once upon a time--for that is how all stories should begin--there was a boy who lost his mother.
9. Once, in a kingdom called Delain, there was a King with two sons.
10. The play--for which Briony had designed the posters, programs and tickets, constructed the sales booth out of a folding screen tipped on its side, and lined the collection box in red crepe paper--was written by her in a two-day tempest of composition, causing her to miss a breakfast and a lunch. "Atonement" by Ian McEwan. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] gothayesd51708!

You're right!

God, I have to get that movie, too. "Atonement" has to be the best movie adaption from a book I've ever seen.

I honestly have never finished the book. I've tried to read it like 2 or 3 times. I guess I will have to pick it up again. I loved McEwan's Enduring Love though! :)

What part do you get stuck on? For me, I nearly got stuck in the middle part of the book when you get to Robbie.

What's Enduring Love about? I forget, but I heard that was good.
