Day Fourteen: First Sentence

 
 
In my mind, my kitchen is filled with crackers and cheese, roast chicken leftovers, farm fresh eggs, and coffee beans ready to grind.  The reality is that I keep my Smith & Wesson in the cookie jar, my Oreos in the microwave, a jar of peanut butter and hamster food in the over-the-counter cupboard, and I have beer and olives in the refrigerator.

                                                                                                      A Stephanie Plum Novel
                                                                                                          by Janet Evanovich
                                 



 
 
Sorry, I had to cheat and put the first two sentences.  The first one really didn't make much sense without the second one in tow. 
 
 
I absolutely love this series of novels.  There is always a smile, a giggle, and even a belly laugh while I'm reading.  They make me happy! 
 
 
I have recently finished number 19 in the series, and number 20 came out this past fall.  I am trying to hold off reading that one for a little bit - adding to the anticipation of the read, knowing it's the last for awhile.

  2. I love how the writing easily helps us to create mental images and a sense of place. I could almost smell both kitchens!
