Gacked from EVERYONE I KNOW.

the "first line" meme

one: Take your ten favorite books (that you happen to have at school with you).
two: Post the first line of each book in your journal.
three: Have your friends try to guess which books are which.
four: Revel in your geek-ery.

1. The night before he went to London, Richard Mayhew was not enjoying himself. (julii_wolfe got it first)

2. My father had a face that could stop a clock. (hadrian livius)

3. The great journey to the homeland of the philosophers began in Arendal, an old shipping town on the south coast of Norway.

4. The angel was cleaning out his closets when the call came. (hadrian livius)

5. [putting down books] Someone's love never falters, I see.
    Bennett, do pull yourself together.
    But will it pay the price?

6. "Sally." A mutter. "Wake up now, Sally." A louder mutter: leeme lone. He shook her harder. "Wake up. You got to wake up!"

7. The family of Dashwood had been long settled in Sussex. (bessiemaemucho got title, julii_wolfe the author)

8. It is dreadfully flat here since you have been gone, and it only makes it worse to imagine all the things I shall be missing.

9. Noon. London: my flat. Ugh. The last thing on earth I feel physically, emotionally or mentally equipped to do is drive to Una and Geoffrey Alconbury's New Year's Day Turkey Curry Buffet in Grafton Underwood. (julii_wolfe)

10. I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and I tell you, he's the one. (leiascully/kitlee625)


So.. I don't expect anyone to get 5 or 6. You get extra points if you manage that ;)

Dear Khalid,

Your pronunciation SUCKS. Try ENUNCIATING so those of us who are not from Egypt can understand you, you bastard.

No love,
Me.
