International Book Week Meme

[browngirl]

With thanks to pickledginger for the reminder.

"The rules: Grab the closest book, turn to page 52, post the 5th sentence on that page. Don't mention the book's title in your post, but please do include a copy of the meme's rules."

The closest book does not have a page 52. The next closest book:

"At Meidum there was built a pyramid which was originally of seven steps, subsequently enlarged to eight."

Naturally, I'm reading this in the public library! Too many candidates for closest book, and even if I had a tape measure longer than one meter in my pocket, I don't think I'd want to be dragging it over my fellow patrons!
