New Books

I thought an interesting way to promote new books would be to share some of the first lines. Authors want to hook a reader quickly and so the first line of a book can be very important. Here are some from books that are new to the Library:

Are you intrigued? Do you want to know the titles of these books? Try sending some guesses. If you guess right, you can be the first to sign it out.
