Author Topic: The Book Sentence Game (Read 143302 times)

Kisitiene · « **on:** October 14, 2009, 03:27:40 pm »

Okay, so I see this everywhere and I think it's a pretty funny game and I find it somewhat addicting...

For those of you who have no clue now to play this game ::

Look around where you are sitting and find the closest book/magazine/reading material! (It must have words in it...Sudoku doesn't count. XP)
Look at the last post and go to the page number. If your book doesn't have this page number then grab the next closest one that does!
Count out the sentences to the sentence number and then type the sentence into your post!
Pick new page and sentence numbers and add these to the end of your post! ^^

You can either put down which book it is or see if anyone can guess it.

Also, if you are sick of using the same book for more than one post (since obviously it will be closest to you from the last time) then just grab the next nearest one.

So, let's start! ^^
