I reorganized my bookmooch account (canceled one, opened another, put some books up for mooch that I likely won't be rereading), did more research for SakuraCon hotels, bought text books and now am organizing my checkbook.
Thus, meme.
1. Pick 10 of your favorite books or series'.
2. Post the first sentence of each book. (If one sentence seems too short, post two or three!)
3. Let everyone try to guess the titles and authors of your books.
1.) The Dark Council reconvened. The Heir To The Shadows, Anne Bishop. Guessed by
ivy_chan .
2.) She stretched her arms wide, hands open, holding the pose for an instant before bursting into furious motion. Steal The Dragon, Patricia Briggs. Guessed by
ivy_chan .
3.) It was nine o'clock at night and Tremaine was trying to find a way to kill herself that would bring in a verdict of natural causes in court when someone banged on the door. The Wizard Hunters, Martha Wells. Guessed by
chomiji .
4.) Matilda Goodnight stepped back from her latest mural and realized that of all the crimes she’d committed in her thirty-four years, painting the floor-to-ceiling reproduction of van Gogh’s sunflowers on Clarissa Donnelly’s dining room wall was the one that was going to send her to hell. Faking It, Jennifer Crusie. Guessed by
tsukara .</b></div>
5.) I taped the commercial back in April, before anything had happened, and promptly forgot about it. Just Listen, Sarah Dessen
6.) On a March afternoon a knight and a man-at-arms reached the gates of the Marenite city of Berat. Lioness Rampant, Tamora Pierce. Guessed by
tobu_ishi and
syl_luvs_silver .

indira14 .
8.) Mark Jenkins was having a meltdown. Into The Storm, Suzanne Brockman. guessed by
a_lifestyle
9.) I tossed my backpack in a corner of the studio and high-fived Rodney on his way out. Kitty & The Midnight Hour, Carrie Vaughn. Guessed by
ivy_chan .
10.) They say the prospect of being hanged in the morning concentrates a man's mind wonderfully; unfortunately, what the mind inevitably concentrates on is that, in the morning, it will be in a body that is going to be hanged. Going Postal, Terry Prachett. Guessed by
ivy_chan and
tsukara .
Some of these - most of these - I will be quite impressed if people guess correctly.
[ETA: sorry about the lack of cut. It vanished when I edited this post, and I'm afraid to fuck with the formatting more.]

1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And thus the endless cycle of the meme goes on and on and on and on ...
