First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros is a bookish meme hosted by Bibliophile By the Sea where readers share the first paragraph of a book they are currently reading.
I'm currently reading To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.
Intro of To Kill a Mockingbird-
"When he was nearly thirteen, my brother Jem got his arm badly broken at the
elbow. When it healed, and Jem’s fears of never being able to play football were
assuaged, he was seldom self-conscious about his injury. His left arm was
somewhat shorter than his right; when he stood or walked, the back of his hand
was at right angles to his body, his thumb parallel to his thigh. He couldn’t have
cared less, so long as he could pass and punt."
Awwww. I really should reread this.
ReplyDeleteI'm over due for a reread, too!
ReplyDeleteWe had to read so many books in school in such a short time frame that I'm not sure I appreciated some of them as much as I should have. This is one of those. Girl Who Reads
