This time we did funniest sentences, and people were allowed to read two sentences in a row if the humor needed it.
One line in particular gathered a bunch of club members together as “sentence buddies” — by my count, four people chose that sentence about the semi-colons and parentheses in Casaubon’s blood.
“He has got no good red blood in his body,” said Sir James.
“No. Somebody put a drop under a magnifying-glass and it was all semicolons and parentheses,” said Mrs. Cadwallader.
Four is a record — I think — for sentence buddies in book club.
