Let's bring the Random Book prompt back around. I mean, I know it's only been over a year since last time, but I thought maybe we should use it again?
Anyway. Grab a random book off the shelf. Poke around Amazon. However you get your book, use its first line as your own and go from there. Credit where it's due, as always, and feel free to recommend some reading for me in the process.
