Book Beginnings (1)

This meme is hosted by Rose City Reader.

Please join me every Friday to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you are reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires. Please remember to include the title of the book and the author's name.

The most dangerous sicknesses are those that make us believe we are well. –Proverb 42, The Book of Shhh

Every chapter of Delirium (by Lauren Oliver) starts with a quote from an in-world source. I really love this. It is a brilliant way to extend on the world-building as it gives you an idea of the sort of ideas that Lena grew up with.
