MY BOOK BEGINNING:
prologue
July 18, 2000
"The dead have nothing to fear," Lexie said.
56%
So Lexie entered the water in complete darkness that final time. Slipping out of her shorts and T-shirt, leaving them on the edge where Diane and the police and paramedics found them the next day.
Both of your excerpts are enticing. The opening is such a true and final statement and the 56% quote sent a shiver down my spine. Poor Lexie.
ReplyDeleteI have heard great things about Jennifer McMahon's books but haven't read anything by her yet. I hope you are enjoying The Drowning Kind.
Have a great weekend!
I am enjoying it a lot. I'm not sure if I have read anything by her or not before. I need to check. I read so much it's hard to keep up sometimes.
DeleteThank you for stopping by and have a great weekend also.
Sounds like a read for me! Happy Easter weekend!
