'First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros' is a meme hosted by Diana from http://bibliophilebythesea.blogspot.in, where book lovers share the first paragraph from a book they are reading!
Currently reading: My Heart & Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga
First paragraph:
Music, especially classical music, especially Mozart's Requiem Mass in D Minor, has kinetic energy. If you listen hard enough, you can hear the violin's bow trembling above the strings, ready to ignite the notes. To set them in motion. And once the notes are in the air, they collide against one another. They spark. They burst.
As a person who loves playing music, I can really connect with this paragraph. The detailed description enchants and captures the reader. I am about 20 pages into the book and I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far!
