Last hour there was a mini challenge over at The Hungry Readers where you had to "turn to page 23 of the book you're currently reading (or the nearest page with text on it) and find the most entertaining phrase to complete the following sentence:"


"I would rather read than _____________ any night!"


This was mine from the book that I am currently reading:

I would rather read than be 'married off to some unlanded, unblooded upstart who wishes to use me for his own ambition.'

  1. Thanks so much for playing along! I have never read The Kingmaking (I've never even *heard* of The Kingmaking) but I'm already in love with the cover, so I'll have to check it out. Way to go on reading this long!
