Apr. 28th, 2005 10:23 pmSo despite yesterday's crappy most-of-day, this has been a pretty dang happy week so far, and I am now indulging myself and doing an idle meme, because I am caught up on my flist and my RPGs; my research proj thingy for my CDaE class is done, and I have actually been hanging with RL people. Plus I'm going to my old, old, veryvery first fandom home tonight to see if they still keep out the welcome mat for me.
So, gacked from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Post the first lines of ten favorite books, and see if your flist can guess them!
Hints: There are five fantasy or psuedo-fantasy; five not, although the supernatural comes into play in one of those. One is famous. All but one is by a famous/semi-famous author, and all are by authors who deserve to be famous. Two are by the same woman.
1. "I've decided to quit school again," Libby said.
2. Everything starts somewhere, although many physicists disagree. Hogfather, by Terry Pratchett, guessed by Jack!
3. Melinda Pratt rides city bus number twelve, wearing her mother's jean jacket and only one sock. Hallo, world, says Minna. Minna often addresses the world, sometimes silently, sometimes out loud.
4. It rained toads the day the White Council came to town. Summer Knight, by Jim Butcher, guessed by gryfindormia
5. It was a summer that began and nearly ended with a death.
6. Nothing was going right with the Wizard's University.
7. "Isobel? I'm afraid we're going to have to take it off." // "Take it off, take it off," I sang, like a vamp song; but I don't think I actually did, and I know my laughter stayed inside my head. I think my voice did too.
8. As soon as he was born, Mr. and Mrs. Canker knew that their baby was not like other people's children. Which Witch, by Eva Ibbotson, guessed by shaycaron
9. This is my favourite book in the world, although I have never read it. Princess Bride, by William Goldman, guessed by shaycaron and kaalee
10. There was a time when I was eleven years old--between the start of a new school year and Midwinter's Night--when I was invisible. I was never invisible for long, and I always returned to plain sight, but all my life has been affected by the people I met and the time I spent in a world where I could see and not be seen.
