Verona paused outside the door to Nyra’s quarters, hand raised, but hesitating to knock on the light, plain wood door.

- Meandbooks

’I Love That Line’ Award

Evian could feel himself drowning in it, as the bleariness inundated his senses.

- Pompadour

I mean, just dying by one simple shot would be kinda disappointing.

- AdrianMoon

He studies me carefully as he drains his glass of wine before saying, "So, my rebellious wife-to-be, what were you doing outside tonight?”

- QueenOfHearts

Delightful Description

His giant, twin-headed rock hammer suddenly appeared in his hand and he swung it over his shoulder, shattering the light around him as he did.

They crowd into the aisle, sharing pictures on their phones, and elbows fly every which way.

- Buggiedude2340

They seemed so few in number outside, in the vacancy of the wide streets, when the sky was their only umbrella against the world.

- Pompadour

Delightful Description

[Kamikaz rose up and knelt in front of Mettrick, a joyful smile spread from one cheek to another.

Outstanding Opening Line Award

The school lunch rush, full of obnoxious, inexperienced drivers desperate for something other than rubbery cafeteria pizza, hits Rick with its full force.

- Buggiedude2340

’I Love That Line’ Award

I wanted my death to be spectacular and not just a faulty error in a book.

- AdrianMoon

As he waits for the traffic to crawl forward, Rick even spots, with some distaste, a woman dressed in gaudy leopard spots.

- Buggiedude2340

They seemed so few in number outside, in the vacancy of the wide streets, when the sky was their only umbrella against the world.

- Pompadour

Delightful Description

He looked up, squinting into the darkness; it reminded him of inkwash, of the ink-crusted quills that had littered his father's study.

- Pompadour

- AdrianMoon

’I Love That Line’ Award

She sprang onto the roof, moving quickly towards the figure, only to find that it was two.

- Falconer

I glare at him, but when he does nothing except look back innocently, I grin at him.

- QueenOfHearts

Prince looked up, drinking in the sight of the old spines; the exquisite gold letters winked at him from their faded covers, and a deep longing rose inside his soul.

- Pompadour

Delightful Description

The air is just cold enough to be uncomfortable, and voices are smothered by the ambient noises of the bus and outside traffic.

’I Love That Line’ Award

A haunting howl followed by distinct rasping sounds suddenly invaded the air, interrupting the chatting players

- Tortwag

A soft breeze wraps us in its icy fingers, and I shiver.

- QueenOfHearts

The cold Emily hissed, the shifted and transformed into a massive shadowy bird, flying away and taking the scenery with it.

- Falconer

Delightful Description

On his other side, he can hear an electric thrum. Someone’s music is playing too loud for their headphones.

- Buggiedude2340

Here’s the thing about spying no one realizes: The cars that you escape in are actually pretty crappy.

- AdrianMoon

’I Love That Line’ Award

In fact, I found myself in the back of a gray minivan while Brandy tried to play herself off as my worried aunt. She played the role nicely and my skin color was only brought into discussion once, when she fought back with the idea of adoption

- AdrianMoon

You see, she thought you were cold, and heartless enough to let your sister die for the sake of your country.” Blathen whispers his words in my ear, his lips barely brushing against my neck.
