Book fun
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next three sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.
6. Tag five other people to do the same.
The closest book to me (it was right there on the coffee table and, despite the title, it is NOT a comic book) was Murder at Wayne Manor by Duane Swierczynski.
"But this mask was taken to a grotesque extreme. It looked like an osidian statue of a fierce warrior who had melted while screaming, leaving this horrific fossil behind... dressed in a pin-striped suit and fedora.
'Who are you?' I asked.
'The Black Mask of Fate, Mr. Wayne. I've come for you at long last.'
Then he nodded."
