Re: Bookworms:What are the best first lines you've read?
"Like most people I lived for a long time with my mother and father. My father liked to watch the wrestling. My mother liked to wrestle."
Oranges are not the only Fruit -Jeanette Winterson
Great start to a favourite book of mine -I really identify with this book as it's set when I was growing up in Accy. I have the video of the dramatisation which is really good too -watch it when I'm feeling homesick!
