The back of the book blurb needs to be attention-getting; it is a vital part of your book's marketing. The blurb is a paragraph (or two) that invites the reader into your book. You will want to begin with a hook, as this first line draws the reader in and gets them wanting to know more. The following few lines in the blurb will explain more about the storyline, the character, and the conflict, without giving too much away.
