From the First (or Last) Line - November

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

For this challenge, you will pick a book that you read last month. Using the first or last sentence from a book, find another book that ties in with that sentence.

You can read as many books as you like from one of last month's books, or
you can read a book for several of last month's books. (Did that make sense? :)

Examples:
Last month I read Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. The first line is: "Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much." - read a book that is the 4th in a series or where the main characters are married

... Moon Called. The first line is: "I didn't realize that he was a werewolf at first." - read a book written in the first person or read a paranormal or urban fantasy story

... The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The last line is: "But if the Professor was right it was only the beginning of the adventures of Narnia." - read a book where the main character is a teacher, or read the first book of a series

... Matilda. The last line is: "Miss Honey was still hugging the tiny girl in her arms and neither of them said a word as they stood there watching the big black car at the end of the road and disappearing for ever into the distance." - read a book with a small child in it, or read a book with a vehicle on the cover

Duration: November 1 - 30, 2020
Re-reads and audio books are okay.
There are no page limits.
