Top Ten Tuesday: Favorite beginnings or ends of a book

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly hosted by The Broke and Bookish. Every week the girls from the Broke and
Bookish come up with a subject and I will try to find 10 results combined with that weeks topic.

This weeks topic was not really that simple for me. If a first line is catchy I will settle myself and start reading but to say that I remember that one book with that catchy sentence or that surprising or poetic end is something different. So I had to go and check some of the books that gave me that feeling while looking at them and I managed to gather some of these beginnings and two ends.

It begins with absence and desire
It begins with blood and frea
It begins with a discovery of witches
