While She Knits -- Favorite Books Meme

[checkers65477.livejournal.com]

I've enjoyed reading various people's Favorite Books Meme---can we play it while she knits?

Here's what you do.  Grab one of your favorite books and post the first sentence.  Other people try to guess the book.  Make it as easy or hard as you want.  Remove character's names if you want to.  If no one's guessed it in a week or so, we can all come back here and reveal our books.


So, I might say:

There were crimson roses on the bench; they looked like splashes of blood.

And then YOU would say...well, what DO you say?  What book is it from?    C'mon, it's an easy one!

*returns hug* It's a great book.

I was a little surprised that I knew *exactly* which book it was. I don't usually think about the first lines, but I guess some of them stick...somewhere. lol
