Mark I'm a bit of a sucker for first sentences in novels, they're usually a great way to get a first feel of what you're about to read. Let's play a game to see how much of a lasting impression they give.

Starting of easy, which book starts with the sentence below?

"It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen".


Whoever get's it right can pick the next first sentence. Oh, and try to resist the temptation to check out the posters Goodreads bookshelves ; )
