    I think you picked the right book as it had the first line that was the most intriguing but they all sound great!! I’ve read Hurricane Season and can vouch for that one - it’s fab. Great video, thanks Jack!

    One could make a case for any of them, but I believe Gay Best Friend is the direction I would go because it promises to be light and have a happy ending ♥ Thanks for the video!

    Hi Jack!!! Thank you for the lovely video, a first line battle is always a lot of fun!
    I totally sympathise with the struggle of deciding what to read. I have lists upon lists of books that I want to get to, but when it's time to actually choose one my mind goes blank 😅
    "The gay best friend" had a good opening line, much better than I expected too, but, as bas as it might sound, the stabbing was very intriguing so I understand your final choice 😂
    Have a lovely week! 😊

      So many people are saying The Gay Best Friend had such a great opening line!
      I know it sounds terrible but I too was intrigued by the stabbing! I couldn’t help it!
      Have a great week (there’s another video on Thursday this week) 😊

    pachinko is on my TBR and up my street writing and swag, so I am biased and would choose that one even without first lines so I’m leaving my previous comment

    ‘ One Person’s pain is just another person’s paperwork ‘ is a 🔥 line , but the Nathan book’s vibe sounds more interesting to me personally 📚🪱💚
