First Line Friday (9): Red Magnolia by Lucy Holden

First Line Friday is a bookish tag hosted over at Abstract Books that is used to showcase your favourite first lines of books.

There really is something to be said about a good first line, and I'm going to be using this tag from now on to showcase my current read's first lines.

For this week's First Line Friday I have the first line from Red Magnolia by Lucy Holden.

Goodreads 

"Dear Tessa, it's a year today since I watched you die. If one more person tells me not to feel guilty, I might actually lose it."

I'm a little bit more than halfway through this book, and I really like this as a first line. it really helps set the tone for the story.

Anyway, thank you for joining me on my 9th First Line Friday, and look out for the release of Red Magnolia on September 15, 2021!
