Book Beginnings on Friday is a meme originally hosted by Katy from A Few More Pages but now hosted by Gilion at Rose City Reader. Anyone can participate; just share the opening sentence of your current read, making sure that you include the title and author so others know what you're reading.
The Jane Austen Book Clubby Karen Joy Fowler
"Each of us has a private Austen."
I am enjoying this book very much, but having a very hard time divorcing it from the movie.
Nice opening. I saw the movie a while back and have the book, but haven't read it yet. Maybe it's been long enough now that I've forgotten enough of the movie to enjoy the book. My Friday post: http://wcs53.wordpress.com/2012/07/20/book-beginnings-and-friday-56-the-flood-july-20/

I like the opening line, and I enjoyed the movie a lot too.
Here's my Book Beginning.
I have not seem the movie so that would not be a problem for me. Here is my post:
Book Beginnings
I read the book and thought it was a little weak. i think I would prefer the movie.
Thanks for posting on BBOF!

Love the power of that crisp opening sentence! Instantly invites inclusive understanding and recognition!
