First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros - The Lola Quartet; Emily St. John Mandel

Every Tuesday, I'll be posting the opening paragraph (sometimes maybe a few) of a book I decided to read based on the opening paragraph (s). Feel free to grab the banner and play along.  This week's selection is a book I've been curious about. 

 The Lola Quartet; Emily St. John Mandel

Unbridled Books - May 15, 2012

 "Anna had fallen into a routine, or as much of a routine as a seventeen-year-old can reasonably fall into when she's transient and living in hiding with an infant.  She was staying at her sister's friend's house in a small town in Virginia."

 "The baby always woke up crying at four-thirty or five a.m. Anna got up and changed Chloe's diaper, prepared a bottle and bundled her into the stroller and then they left the basement where they were living, walked three blocks to the twenty-four-hour doughnut shop for coffee and across the wide empty street to the park.  Anna sat on a swing with her first coffee of the morning and Chloe lay in the stroller staring up at the clouds.  They listened to the birds in the trees at the edges of the park, the sounds of traffic in the distance. The climbing equipment cast a complicated silhouette against the pale; morning sky."
