I heard about Sunday Sentence from Erika Dreifus. It's supposed to be a sharing of a "best sentence" read during the week, without context. It seems like a quick and easy way to do a little promo for a book.
I started to write some explanation of how I came to choose this, but...no context!!! So:
"It wouldn't take much digging for an interested party to ascertain the...depths of abnormal...upon which she'd built this life." Dreams of Gods & Monsters by Laini Taylor.
