Another great first line...

Here is my new favorite first line to a book:

"You frighten me", the Gypsy said.  "Never have I seen my crystal ball so filled with darkness."

(A Red Herring Without Mustard by Alan Bradley--also the author of, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie)



I haven't finished the book yet but don't you just want to eat it up because of that first line?!
