First Five
I just purchased this book after receiving multiple recommendations from other authors. This one is written by a Literary Agent whose clients include Pulitzer Prize nominees.
I haven't heard of this, but I'm definitely going to check it out. I have HOOKED (Writing Fiction that Grabs Readers at Page one and Never Lets Them Go) by Les Edgerton. It's a great little book and I found it very helpful. But I'm definitely going to pick up your suggestion!
Hi, Sylvia. Let us know what you think of Lukeman's book. I've heard a lot of good things about it. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am having fun with this!
I do believe I own that book now that I think of it. And if I recall it was pretty good. Reminds you of things you may have overlooked if you've been writing a while, and I good book if you are just now getting into novel writing.
Haven't even heard of it. But I hope it helps you. Thanks for following me and after checking your blog I'm following you and adding your blog to my blogroll.
I've never heard of it, but the title speaks loud and clear and I agree with it, both as a reader and a writer. The first five pages need to grab hold and not let go.

I have it in my library, and he does offer concrete advice about making the first five pages shine.
His blog however always seemed abandoned. . .going months without updates.
Never heard of it, but sounds like something I need to check out.

I've heard of it, but not read it. It's on my list.
Just dropping by on the A-Z blogging challenge. Will stop by again!

Waiter, drink please!
I haven't, but it looks interesting. Let us know.
I haven't heard of it, but I'm so far behind on my craft books as it is, I don't think I'll be adding another one right now.
I've never heard of it. Please let us know what it is like.
Blessings and Bear hugs!

Checking out my fellow bloggers.I never read the book by Noah Lukeman, but I've heard of him.
I have not read it. I imagine that it's super useful though!
