Every year, authors write a first sentence to an imaginary novel. The idea? To be the worst.
This year’s “winner” is in a class all by itself:
Detective Bart Lasiter was in his office studying the light from his one small window falling on his super burrito when the door swung open to reveal a woman whose body said you’ve had your last burrito for a while, whose face said angels did exist, and whose eyes said she could make you dig your own grave and lick the shovel clean.
Now that is an awful sentence.
Honestly, I can’t even think of a way to make it any worse.
