Rules:
You grab the nearest book to you. You open the book to a random page and check the post before you to see which sentence on that page you have to read.
You then post what that sentence reads and then give the next poster a sentence number. Let's try to keep the sentence numbers under thirty. You don't have to ping the previous person.

For example if someone gave me, "Sentence 12," I'd write:
It was a small, office-like room, with a huge ledger upon the table, and a telephone projecting from the wall.

And then whatever number sentence the next person has to write out.

Let's start with sentence 7.
