I saw this in another group and it was a lot of fun =)

Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 59
* Find the sixth complete sentence.
* Post that sentence here, along with the book.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST book. Apparently this is meant to say something about you. Have fun!

I'll use mine as an example.
'But Gracey, I don't want you to end up here for the rest of your life.'
