First Line Friday – A Castaway in Cornwall

Welcome to First Line Friday! I don’t know what the weather is doing in your neck of the woods, but winter is clinging on here! We just got 3 fresh inches of snow and have had fluctuating temps. I’m excited to snuggle up with this book and runaway to Cornwall for a little while. What are you reading this weekend?
