My friend bought me 47 Ronin as a gift and I'm absolutely in love with the lavish and otherworldly illustrations you find throughout the book. For a Japan-o-phile like myself, this is just bookporn of the highest order. Shown here with my Chinese teapot (yes, I'm aware I'm mixing cultures but it works for the pic 😋

'Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again...' opening lines to Du Maurier's classic 'Rebecca' is my favourite opening line of all time. It's so evocative, mysterious and enigmatic. I adore this book, a perfect study in jealousy.
What's your favourite opening line?
(I love book- illustration pics and bookmarks) This one was a gift from an Australian author friend 💕
