Friday Firsts is a weekly meme started by Allison at Well-Read Reviews.
---
The first line can make or break a reader's interest. Just how well did the author pull you in to the story with their first sentence? To participate in this weekly book meme is extremely easy.
- Grab the book you are currently reading and open to the first page.
- Write down the first sentence in the first paragraph.
- Create a blog post with this information. (Make sure to include the title & author of the book you are using. Even an ISBN helps!)
- Did this first sentence help draw you into the story? Why or why not?

HEIST SOCIETY
by Ally Carter
No one knew for certain when the trouble started at the Colgan school.
I have been putting off reading Heist Society ever since I got it. That is why you can see that I have it as my "Currently Reading" (see right sidebar; topmost) for almost a week now. Normally, I finish a book in four (4) hours. But these are lazy days for me and all I want is to watch Chinese wuxia TV series like The Condor Trilogy.
Yet, as I read the first sentence (and subsequently the first chapter - remember my first Friday Firsts post) I was finally drawn into the story (buwa- LOL, it's a Waray term) and got reading.
