Again, a book I highly recommend, not just for its theme but also for its writing.

* Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions if you want to.

* Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.


Nearest book: Bring Me The Head of Prince Charming by Roger Zelazny
