1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
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. Do what's actually next to you.


"It was morally repugnant."
--Cyteen, by C. J. Cherryh

That's kind of a cool sentence to post, actually. It's surrounded by other sentences full of technobabble, but by itself it fits into a lot of different contexts. I'm vaguely impressed. :)

"When he came back to himself, half his vision was filled with what at first seemed to be a smeary abstract painting of green lines." - The War of the Flowers, Tad Williams.

But that was kind of cheating, because it's the book I'm currently reading, which was downstairs. The book that was literally closest to me said:

"Stranger followed, tied to the wagon." - A Storm of Swords, George R.R. Martin.

Interestingly enough, page 123 was the start of a chapter in each of the two books.
