Stolen from most of the flist by now:

The Rules:
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.

Man, some of these are so incredibly easy...


1. Not long ago, there lived in London a young married couple of Dalmatian dogs named Pongo and Missus Pongo. | The Hundred and One Dalmatians - Dodie Smith, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] coltsbane.

2. It was a nice day. | Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] steelneko.

3. Peter Alander looked down at his handiwork with something approaching a smile, imagining what it would be like to have his first bath in over a hundred years.

4. I felt her fear before I heard her screams.

5. When Mr. Bilbo Baggins of Bag End announced that he would shortly be celebrating his eleventy-first birthday with a party of special magnificence, there was much talk and excitement in Hobbiton. | Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring - J.R.R. Tolkien, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] lyrainverse

6. An autobiography is a book a person writes about his own life and it is usually full of all sorts of boring details. | Boy: Tales of Childhood - Roald Dahl, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] steelneko.

7. In the days following the holocaust, which came to be known as the Great White, there was death and madness. | Obertnewtyn - Isobelle Carmody, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] anomilygrace

8. He shouldn't have taken the shortcut.

#5 is Fellowship of the Ring, of course!

#10 has got to be Calvin & Hobbes, but do comic books count?
