Nearest Book (Tag -- You're Up Next!)
Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, by Harriet Jacobs
Oh, yes! Another meme! And you -- yes, you -- are tagged. : )
I can't claim any creative responsibility for this meme (or any meme to date, for that matter). It whipped through Facebook a few weeks ago, and folks had a lot of fun with it, so I felt it my responsibility (or guilty pleasure!) to bring that fun to you, here in the Red Room. : ) Enjoy!

Meme
I grabbed the nearest book and voila, a quote from Anna Karenina, a book I've been meaning to re-read. Now you've given me the incentive. What a great idea you've come up with.

thanks, but . . .
. . . again, I can't claim the idea for this meme -- only the idea of bringing it to the Red Room. : ) But any idea that leads to the (re)reading of Anna Karenina is a good one, by definition!
Kate Marshall says:
dependent clause
"A dependent clause depends on the rest of the sentence to make sense."
Yup.
Evie Shockley says:
yep!
Although I bet June Casagrande could find an exception . . .
