Actually, I had a compilation of erotic literature in Spanish near me, but I decided to change it for the book next to it which was in English, so here it is.

The Chronicles of Narnia, The Witch, The Lion and the Wardrobe

"That's just the funny thing about it, sir," said Peter. "Up till now, I'd have said Lucy every time."
"And what do you think, my dear?" said the Professor, turning to Susan.


Now, I'm tagging everyone on my f-list who feels like doing it ^^


Haven't truly done a meme in quite a while...felt good. Thank you, dearest *smooch*

131, eh? Well, the nearest book is the one I'm currently re-reading, Titus Groan. Here goes, fifth sentence... (the others were short, like one word or so. I'll put them here too, if you don't mind to give a sense of context to what comes after; "I heard feet. That is all. Feet." said his sister and the, after a pause she added with renewed emphasis: "Feet.")

Now the rest;

"Irma, my dear sister," said Prunesquallor, "I have two things to say. Firstly, why in the name of discomfort are we hanging around in the hall and probably dying of a draught that as far as I am concerned runs up my right trouser leg and sets my gluteous maximus twitching; and secondly, what is wrong, when you boil matters down - with feet? I have always found mine singularly useful, especially for walking with. In fact, ha, ha, ha, one might almost imagine that they had been designed for that very purpose."

Thanks for posting this. It was fun, and funnily enough, the little extract kind of stands alone.
