Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated.

Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

The opening line of 'Brave New World' by Aldous Huxley is 'A squat grey building of only thirty - four stories.' This simple description of a building gives a feeling of a cold, uninviting world. It starts to build the image of a society that is perhaps very regimented and soulless, as the building seems rather dull and unremarkable, which may be a reflection of the society as a whole.

In many dystopian novels, the opening lines show a deviation from the normal. For instance, the start of 'Snowpiercer' (the novel on which the movie is based). If it started with a line like 'The train moved forward.' It might seem normal, but instead, it might start with something like 'The survivors on the train knew that outside was a frozen, dead world.' This immediately shows a world that is not as it should be. It sets a tone of confinement, of a last - ditch effort at survival in a world that has gone horribly wrong. And this tone of a world in crisis and people just trying to get by in a very abnormal situation pervades the entire story.

Some opening lines in novels are really captivating. For example, in 'Pride and Prejudice', 'It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.' This line sets the tone for the whole story about marriage and social class in that era. Another great one could be from '1984' which starts with a rather gloomy and controlling atmosphere description, making readers immediately feel the oppressiveness of the world Orwell is about to show.

The opening line 'Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendía was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice' from 'One Hundred Years of Solitude'. This complex line jumps through time, giving a sense of the non - linear nature of the story. It also creates an air of mystery and doom, as we start with the character facing a firing squad and then go back in time. It's a very effective way to start a novel that is full of magic realism.
