Just tryin' to have myself a little bit of fun

Copied from just about everyone:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open it to page 161.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

"An endless stream of faerie folk paraded from her easel and sketchbook, making new homes for themselves in back alleys and city parks, on the wharves down by the waterfront or in the twisty lanes of Lower Crowsea."

Dreams Underfoot, Charles De Lint.

...I should add that Dreams Underfoot is a collection of short stories, and probably a good one to start with. His books tend not to be in any particular sort of order, but there is a cast of characters that tend to turn up in multiple books, and you can meet a lot of them in these stories.

Thanks for all the info - next time I order books, will put that one on the list! The "recurring cast" is another good thing (Pratchetty!), and short stories are generally great.
