I just talked with my kids about opening lines of novels on Thursday! I have this list I created a few years ago of really cool opening lines from books like Requiem For A Dream (Harry locked his mother in the closet) and Possessing the Secret of Joy (I did not realize for along time that I was dead). Those were their two favorites of the five I scrawled on the board.

That site is a good one to have handy. We’re talking about interesting writing and I’ll give them that site on Monday so we can talk about it.
