First Chapter ~ First Paragraph #138

It's Tuesday . . . time for . . .

                                                      

First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros hosted by Diane at Bibliophile by the Sea, where bloggers post the first paragraph(s) of a book they are currently reading or planning to read sometime soon.

Today I'm featuring an upcoming read, The Gilded Hour by Sara Donati, which I borrowed from the library.

The Gilded Hour  

1
1883

Early on a March morning on the cusp of spring, Anna Savard came in from the garden to find a young woman with a message that would test her patience, disrupt her day, and send her off on an unexpected journey: a harbinger of change wearing the nursing habit of the Sisters of Charity, standing in the middle of the kitchen.  


 
What do you think?  Would you continue reading?
The opening lines of this historical novel have me quite curious as to the message about to be delivered--it sounds like it will be life changing and far reaching.
