reading slaughterhouse 5 for the first time and i was absolutely knocked senseless by this passage, which is so true and relevant that it feels like it was pulled from a history book

It's SAPPHIC SEPTEMBER and I've got three queer-ass books ready for you!
1. Wow, I wonder if the endless staring and pinkie brushing means anything?
2. If I don't seduce the pirate queen, I'm doomed. Fortunately she's hot. Unfortunately she's unhinged.
3. V hungry, v horny, prone to bad decisions.

I am mildly obsessed with nailing a good first line, and IMO to do so one must convey at least three or four details/pieces of information. As a reader, I want to know several things immediately: what's the MC doing? What time period/era is this? What's just happened to stir up conflict in the MC's
"It cost me every penny in my pocket to get half an hour alone with Haverstock before he was hanged, but if I had known then what I know now, I would have paid ten times as much."
I do like to start my novels with a banger first line. INTO THE CAVES OF HELL WE GO, FRIENDS.

I’m reposting so I remember to go read the reviews and purchase.
For those who may have missed it. All reviews of the book on NetGalley are Five ⭐'s. I hope you'll give this series a chance.
Reviews for @cshumble.bsky.social's TO CARRY A BODY TO ITS RESTING PLACE continue to come in over on NetGalley, and they continue to *all* be five-stars!
As the publisher, I already know this saga is great. But it's so fun watching others discover it in real time.

A seamstress named Elsy Noemi Berrios was forcibly detained by masked agents who did not present a warrant.
Elsy is about 52 years old & has an asylum case pending in court.
Her teenage daughter filmed this terrifying scene.
If they can do it to her, they can do it to you.
