Book Beginnings Wiki



Welcome to the Wiki
Welcome to the Book Beginnings wiki!

We are collecting all the first lines from all the books in the whole world. Or at least the ones people can reach, or remember!

What do do
If you would like to add a "first line" please create a new page with the title of the book. Put the first line in first in "quotes", followed by the character who said it, if relevant. On the next line put the author of the book. Add some categories that seem relevant, including genre and year of issue, and original language. If the book is in a different language to English please put the original language first, followed by the English translation. And any other language translations you see fit.
