It's the Hanger's portion of the Hookers and Hangers Blogfest brought to you by the Falling for Fiction ladies.
Here are the rules if you don't know what I'm talking about:
We all know how important the first and last lines are in every chapter. This blogfest will hopefully get your HOOKERS and HANGERS polished making it impossible for readers to put down your book and leaving them begging for more!
On July 16th, post the first sentence from each chapter.
On July 18th, post the last sentence from each chapter.
Post as many as you like!
And here are my Hanger sentences to a few of my chapters from Ripple.
1) It
would make what I did to Seth meaningless and I’m not ready to be that kind of
person.
2) Before I can respond, the strange man from across
the way bounds out of nowhere, rushes Flip, and punches him square in the face.
3) I
register the whomp whomp in my ears
the second I disappear.
4) There's
a knife sticking out of my belly.
Okay, that's all I've got for you today. I can't wait to read yours! Click HERE if you want to check them out too:)

What?! A knife in her belly!! Best Hanger yet!!! Seriously!
Wow, LOVE the Chapter 4 hanger!
Whoa--#4. Big cliffhanger. I wouldn't stop there.
Agree with the others. #4 is a wowzer.
Knife? Belly? What?!?!
Um, you win the blogfest with #4. Seriously. That's the kind of line I want to write. These were all fabulous and so are you!
A knife?? I need to know more!!
AH! I want to read your book again!
They are all good, but number four is a definite read-on line.
Those are some interesting lines. What is your book about?
Three cheers for Deana! These are awesome!
Love them!!!
You definitely know how to make it suspenseful.
I very, VERY much like #1
Oh my goodness, that last one a whopper!!
The last one - oh my gosh!!
A knife! Great cliffhanger!
My favorite is #4.
Oh my gosh! Disappearing?! Knife in belly?! Excellent hangers!
Wow, those are some amazing lines! I'd love to know more about what's going on here. #4 is a showstopper!
I am all about this book, Deana! I'm a time travel sucker, but these are so great!
Deana, those are great! Having just read a portion of the first of this book, I'm SO intrigued!
Okay...you got me. #4 is my fav. =)
I like them all! But chapter 4 is the one that made me stop and go, what the what?? Great job and thanks for joining our hop!
#1 is the sweetest, but the last one...got to turn the page to see if he survives the knife in the belly! Now that's a classic cliff hanger!
Can't go wrong with a knife in the belly! I like how each one got better and better:-) Can't wait to read the whole thing!
#1 says a lt abut the kind of person the MC is and #3 sounds so good. Obviously #4 makes me wonder "WHAT IN THE WORLD?"
Love these! What a great idea to share!

It's very hard for me to choose a favourite here! They're all great. But I think the knife thing is the most "gaspworthy", so maybe I'll have to choose that one :)
Ummm... this one made me go WHAT???
There's a knife sticking out of my belly.
I think someone should help her with that.
Great job Deana!
I love two and 4.
