There is something for everyone here
First Time contains a variety of stories
beginning with four dopey college students driving to Florida for spring break and ending with my favorite, a touching story of a
widower re-tracing the last vacation he took with his beloved wife, Anne. It’s a good collection and an excellent way to get to know
the author, Frank Hopkins. R. E. Reece on August 15, 2016
...book of short stories entwining each one together...
I enjoyed reading
how you can relate to past experiences in some way to your own life...I certainly could especially...Santa Claus Stories and My Trip
Alone...these stood out for me. Judith L. Kirlan July 29, 2016
First Time is nostalgia at its best.
The variety of stories touch on
some part of a reader’s own life, from a spring break trip to an exotic love. Frank E. Hopkins does a fine job of weaving the stories
that, at first seem to stand on their own, but then all come together. Each story taps into the emotions of events throughout life
in a way the reader can relate. All-together, First Time makes a great beach read with each story taking just a little of your time.
I recommend it. Jack Coppley June 13, 2016

…being reminded of similar firsts from my youth
… fond memories as a student or the traditional Spring Break trip to Florida.
The bitter sweet memories of my first car and a trip alone. But by far was a memory I didn't have but could live through his writing,
the trip to Sorrento. Beautifully written, through his words, I enjoyed the walk up from the beach, the breeze from the sea and the
aromas coming from the multiple restaurants he visited. I could feel the charm of the city in his writing. William Kennedy April 13,
