Priestess of the White by Trudi Canavan.
This is one of my favourite books of all time 🙂
The first sentence doesn’t give much away, but it shows an elegant writing style 🙂
Would you read this book based on the first line?

Yes I would read it based on the first line. Also, the cover draws you in.
Glad to hear it, have you ever read any of her books?
No, I haven’t read any of her books but I’ll check her out on Goodreads now.
I read this book a few years ago. I don’t know if the first line would drawn me in, but the cover and the blurb certainly did. I really enjoyed it. I thought the whole series was really good, in fact.
The series is my favourite of hers. Especially this book, there is something so clever about it 🙂
🙂 I have always been hesitant about reading this…not anymore XD First line doesn’t maybe affect my descision whether I read the book or not but I certainly think to myself oh, what an awesome first line
Ye, it’s a very good read. Hope you enjoy it if you do read it.
