First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros

Something new I want to try this year is participating in one or two book memes. One of the first I have decided to participate in is from Diane at Bibliophile by the sea.

Every Tuesday she posts the opening paragraph (maybe two) of a book she decided to read based on the opening paragraph (s). This sounds like a fun activity, so am going to schedule this activity for the next few weeks.


And for my inaugural "intro": Joseph Boyden's Through Black Spruce

When there was no Pepsi left for my rye whiskey, nieces, there was always ginger ale. No ginger ale? Then I had river water. River water's light like something between those two. And brown Moose River water's cold. Cold like living between two colours. Like living in this town. When the whiskey was Crown Royal, then brown Moose River water was a fine, fine mix.
