First Line Friday

Shawshank, November 20, 2020November 19, 2020

This one is simple. I post the first couple lines from a random book on my shelf, and you try and figure out which book it is. The answer will be posted the next Friday, with another first line! Sounds like fun.

I still get nightmares. In fact I get them so often I should be used to them by now. I’m not. No one ever really gets used to nightmares. For a while I tried every pill imaginable. Anything to curb the fear.

Got a guess? Post it in the comments, and may the odds ever be in your favour!
