"ever found something cool in a book?"
Oh! I get it!
I was thinking it was about finding an interesting passage in the text of a book or something, not actually finding a THING in a book. XD
Like:
Hey guys! Look what I found in Great Expectations!
"That was a memorable day to me, for it made great changes in me. But it is the same with any life. Imagine one selected day struck out of it, and think how different its course would have been. Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day."
Duh!
I can't remember if I've found anything interesting in a book other than perhaps an old receipt or something.
But hey, thingsinbooks.com looks great. I'll actually go read the articles now.

heh heh, yeah, interestingpassagesinbooks.com doesn't have quite the same ring, does it? :D
seriously though, go ransack your bookshelf, you're bound to find something.

I like it!
the most memorable thing I've found in a book, I think, was my bank card.
in a library book
in the library
a library book that i had returned, and decided coincidentally that I would like to read again
but that does not have the same kind of appeal
