1) Each participant (2 – 3 is the prefered number of players, but some variations can be just as exciting) takes a random book from the shelf (or pile, depending on the orderliness of the book-housing environment).
2) Then the person picked to start (flip a coin, play rock-paper-scissors, etc.) reads a sentence from a page they choose from their book.
3) The next person reads a sentence from their own book to counter whatever they said.
4) The reading of sentences continues until a book is exhausted and then step 1) is repeated.
5) The winner is the one who can come up with the wittiest comebacks, as judged by the degree of laughter from the participants and/or crowd.

What a great idea for a game.
Yeah, it's a blast! I started playing it during high school.
