It Was A Dark and Stormy Night(search on Board Game Geek)
A trivia game with a very specific type of question: given the first sentence or few from a book, identify that book. There are many different categories, meaning that everyone will probably find something that they can do... that is, if they're the type who actually reads books. The gameplay is otherwise not fancy; roll the die, move that number of spaces, answer a question from that category. Less variety in the board than Trivial Pursuit. There's really not that much else I can add to this review; it was pretty much what you would expect from the description.
