First Chapter ~ First Paragraph Tuesday Intros is a weekly meme hosted by Diane at Bibliophile by the Sea. It's an opportunity to share the first paragraph(s) of a book I am currently reading or planning to read sometime soon.
Today I'm featuring the opening paragraph from My Beloved World by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, which I borrowed from the library.
Prologue
I was barely awake, and my mother was already screaming. I knew Papi would start yelling in a second. That much was routine, but the substance of their argument was new, and it etched that morning in my memory.
What do you think? Would you continue reading?
I don't read many nonfiction titles, but I am looking forward to starting this one for a book club meeting next month. Justice Sotomayor is a role model and inspiration, who I am interested in knowing more about.First Chapter ~ First Paragraph #47 was originally published by Catherine for bookclublibrarian.com.
