I’ve really been enjoying reading cozy mysteries lately.
Join in the First Line Friday fun and leave the first line of your current read then head over to Reading Is My SuperPower and find more fun first lines. My first line today is from the cozy mystery To The Tome of Murder.

And the first line is:
Addie Greyborne swiped at the condensation on the window and pressed her nose against the cold glass.

About The Book
Three weeks before Thanksgiving, bookshop owner Addie Greyborne already has a full plate—and a killer on her case . . .
Addie’s determined to turn a seemingly ordinary November in coastal Greyborne Harbor into one for the books. The windows of her shop display carefully curated works by American writers, including a rare selection of traditional holiday recipes from the influential 19th-century publication Godey’s Ladies Magazine. And then there’s the town’s Civil War-era themed cooking and baking competition, with a hefty cash prize and free publicity going to the winning dish . . .
But when she finds her cousin’s boyfriend murdered, a stunned Addie reluctantly realizes she may be the only person who can blow the cover off a grisly crime. With so many unanswered questions surrounding the victim’s death, Addie must figure out the strange connection between a mysterious vintage briefcase, the disappearance of a first edition copy of Sarah Josepha Hale’s famous nursery rhyme, “Mary Had a Little Lamb,” and a dangerously well-read culprit . . .
Will you be reading this book? Let me know in the comments the first line from your current book.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.

Happy Friday!
I’m currently reading To Kiss a Wallflower. It’s an anthology of short stories. So far, I am loving it! I’ll share a line from the story I’m currently reading.
“Lottie left the woods with a new sense of power.”
I hope you have a great weekend!

My first line comes from Long Way Home by Lynn Austin. Just released.
Hudson Valley, New York. June, 1946
“I know it looks hopeless,” I told Jimmy Barnett’s father. “But we can’t give up until Jimmy is better. Until he’s home again.”
