Open up any book and randomly open a page with your eyes closed and land your finger somewhere. Post the entire sentence.

Why?
Why should I care for some horrible, new happiness which I hadn't given her, and which separated her from me?

Oh god... here goes.

"Suddenly, there, in the middle of a feild of wildflowers on a beautiful summer's day in the peaceful little village of Centerville, where up until this moment life had been normal and calm and people left their houses unlocked and kids played outside until dusk when their mothers called out, "Tommy, Susie, dinner!" and they would come running (if their names were Tommy or Susie)-there, there, before Howie's amazed and bufuddled (yet peircing and highly photogenic) eyes, a giant object, the shape of a food dish, glowing with a blinding white light, rose up and hovered in the air."

Would it sound too girlish if I said those books scared the bejesus out of me as a kid too? So much so that I got special permission to read a different book from everyone else for the class project? *hides face in shame*

No it wouldn't. Although, being a fervant vampire lover since 1st grade I LOVED Bunicula and read every book by James Howe I could get my hands on xd

But then again, I read Christoper Pike's The Last Vampire around the same time too, so it's probably just a freak of nature.
