quote: " I wake to the drone of an airplane engine and the feeling of something warm dripping down my chin. I lift my hand to feel my face. My front four teeth are gone, I have a hole in my cheek, my nose is broken and my eyes are swollen nearly shut. I open them and I look around and
I'm in the back of a plane and there's no one near me. I look at my clothes and my clothes are covered with a colorful mixture of spit, snot, urine, vomit, and blood."
question: I just started the book today, and I only had a meager 15 minutes to read, so I am really just wondering what will happen next?
comment: In my short 15 years I have done a ton of writing and something I have always been taught is to start with a hook or attention grabber to maintain the interest of the reader. I think the quote above is great hook, it's gory and explicit and it holds an interest that forces you to continue to read further.
