Today I'm linking up with Socrates' Book Reviews for First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros. This is a meme I've been following for quite sometime and always enjoyed seeing all the different first paragraphs so I'm really excited to be linking up myself!
Goodreads: The Clocks by Agatha Christie
First Chapter/First Paragraph:
Colin Lamb's Narrative:
To use police terms: at 2:59 on September 9th, I was proceeding along Wilbraham Crescent in a westerly direction. It was my first introduction to Wilbraham Crescent, and frankly Wlibraham Crescent had me baffled.
My Thoughts: So not the most enticing beginning but I do love how frustrated he is by Wilbraham Crescent. I'm not particularly great at directions so I'm often befuddled by confusing streets or blocks.
Great intro, I would definitely read more; never tried this one. Here is my pick:

ReplyDeleteI really must start reading some Agatha Christie. I love that cover, too. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love the use of the word baffled.
ReplyDeleteI still need to read Christie. That is a good start and I would definitely want to read more.
ReplyDeleteI can relate to being baffled and confused by a road, lol/ I'd keep reading.
ReplyDeleteSounds great! Can't go wrong with Agatha Christie.
ReplyDeleteThere is something about Agatha Christie that just says comfort to me. Yes, I know there are murders, but they are quiet little ones. ;-)
