Random quote: "Swords, Lances, arrows, machine guns, and even high explosives have had far less power over the fates of nations than the typhus louse, the plague flea, and the yellow-fever mosquito. Civilizations have retreated from the plasmodium of malaria, and armies have crumbled into rabbles under the onslaught of cholera spirilla, or of dysentery and typhoid bacilli. Huge areas have been devastated by the trypanosome that travels on the wings of the tsetse fly, and generations have been harassed by the syphilis of a courtier. War and conquest and that herd existence which is an accompaniment of what we call civilization have merely set the stage for these more powerful agents of human tragedy." ― Hans Zinsser, Rats, Lice and History

I love being surprised by books. Finding something different to read that I wouldn't have picked myself.

Worlds Without End has a random read generator right there on the front page. It changes every day. Pick something off it daily, and get randomly reading.

If you have another system for randomly picking books to read, you can use that as well. The only rule is it must be truly random. If you are using a different system, it would be great if you tell us about it on the forum. Others may like to use your system as well.
