In Australia it was book week and we did this thing where you grab the nearest book to you, turn to page 56 and read out loud line 5. So, off you go!

The nearest book to me is "Guardians of Ga'Hoole: the Hatchling" by Kathryn Lasky. Line 5 of page 56 says "She regarded her son closely as she said this."

It's a pointless game, but it can be fun.
Received mostly negative reviews.

The Rogue Crew is the nearest book to me now, it has this to say:

"Wilbee pointed over to the small depression. 'There,'"

The next line says "Sarge!" but you only read line 5.

The book closest to me is Mossflower in Japanese, ????????. Line 5 on page 56 reads:
??????????????????????????????????????????????
It's the part where Martin is telling Gonff about his father and how he sailed off to "-make an end to all invading rats forever. It was a brave idea."

Edit: Sorry, the Japanese doesn't appear to be working.

The nearest book to me is The Complete Tales of Beatrix Potter.
