Son of Book Meme

[scarfman]

(I've done this one before, but I like it. And the page number's different this time.)

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open it to page 161.
3. Find the fifth sentence
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't search around and look for the coolest book you can find. Use what's actually next to you.

Patricia Cornwell, The Last Precinct

"Morgenthau's idea," she says to me.

I have but two books within arm's reach.

Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary: There was no call for such rudeness.

(The fifth complete sentence; there were more sentence fragments and head words.)

Particle Properties Data Booklet, June 1992: -

(There were but three complete sentences; most of the page is a table, captioned CLEBSCH-GORDAN COEFFICIENTS, SPHERICAL HARMONICS, & d FUNCTIONS.)

See why I never partake in these memes?

Anita Diamant, The Red Tent
She said that the most important beauty treatment of all was to smell sweet, and her breath was always scented with mint, which she chewed morning and night.
