Grab the nearest book (or if you've got an eReader then open up the book you're reading or last read), open it to page 77, then go down to the 6th line, and type the 6th word. See if we can guess the book.
>Instead
Well... that's vague as fuck... any suggestions on how to make this thread NOT suck? Pic is a hint, though doesn't narrow it down much.
>Furthermore
Better if you post a while line or sentence. A single word is almost useless.
Sharpe's Company
Sorry this thread will suck.
"as"
Yeah, this isn't going to work. Had I picked the seventh word in that sentence it would've been an easy guess, but alas.
>p.
No one will get it. It's a book that's not even in print anymore.
Yeah, alright, I'll choose a different book and give a whole line. 77th page, and 6th line.
Sharpe's Battle, but this next one is going to be different, though the original pic is still related.
Yeah I'm thinking we should try switching to full lines.
>Frederickson still stared at the map. 'How are you going
The next line would have been a dead giveaway I think.
What's the whole line, user?
77th page, 6th line:

Some play by Oscar Wilde comes to mind, but I can't remember the name of it. Took place in ancient times, I think.
Obviously it's I Love Lucy: A Novel.

hmm
You're damn fucking straight it is. Check out The Fort, 1356, and Death of Kings as well. I read them, I think in that order. Death of Kings was probably my least favourite of them, but God damn that doesn't mean it was bad. Cornwell is a GOD in the world of historical fiction as far as I'm concerned. Even Sharpe's Enemy, and that admittedly had VERY little actual history in it! Often times, his books have MANY points of history included, which is what I adore, but it would seem that even those of his novels without much is amazing!
Except for Sharpe's Battle... I have to admit, that's probably my least favourite. For some reason it REALLY bothers me that he'd have an opening in a book THAT fucked up, yet it doesn't have any historical source behind it. I don't know why, really I should be GLAD that it apparently never happened (or at least there's no documented case of an event like that), but a part of reading his books is being amazed that such events might have happened. Yet being so shocked by that start to the book, then finding out it was just from his own somewhat twisted mind it would seem, I for some reason felt betrayed. Bah, I'm probably just being an idiot.
