Quickly, before I go off and shoot myself because today was so long I can't feel my toes anymore:

The answer to #8 in the last entry was Into the Land of the Unicorns, by Bruce Coville. And I suppose Alicia won, since she got the most answers (three), even though technically she didn't answer the third one and if she had it would have been cheating. *grin* Oh well... Otherwise we'd have a 4-way tie for first place and a 2-way tie for second. Which would just be silly.

So congratulations, Alicia. You get... a hug. Or something. Um, how about, I'll actually buy you a birthday present? And I'll ship it to you and everything. What do you want? Or do I get to pick?

Mmkay, I declare today over.

That book meme thingy was really fun for me. Did you guys enjoy that as much as I did?

Definitely. I'd even go for meme, part two. Although maybe not because I hope to do one eventually and you already used two or three of my top two... By the by, how did you find the first lines? I started, but was stymied...

I actually had all ten of those books here. I have my favorites here with me... just because it's not home if your books aren't with you. :-P But brinshannara, the person I stole the meme from, said she used Amazon.com's "Search Inside" thingy, which apparently will let you read the first few pages of a book. You might be able to use Google, too.

I might do Meme Part 2... that would be fun! But you do yours first, so I don't use all yours.
