Here’s How It Works :
* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of Tonya’s blog.
*Post a link along with your post back to Tonya’s.
* Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
