redpiratemel :) I never get sick of this meme!
1. Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
2. Turn to page 56.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post that sentence along with these instructions in your LiveJournal.
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
"No, for it was followed by a protestation of innocence."
Seriously, this is going to surprise no one, but The Original Illustrated Sherlock Holmes was the closest book to me. The quote is from "The Boscombe Valley Mystery." It was a Christmas gift from_melisande_ who really is my dealer in all things awesome :3 It's illustrated with the Paget drawings, and is a reprint of the original Strand publication, so it's got all the font and spellings (Llama! XD) and formatting from the original magazine. Bweeeeee.
