What's the best way to dry out a book?

…I dropped my paperback copy of Children of Dune into the sink once when I was like 14. In a fit of teen nerd ingenuity, I squeezed (squoze?) out as much water as I could by pressing on the closed book. Then I doused, nay, drenched the book with rubbing alcohol (85% isopropyll alcohol) and left it on my sunny windowsill, open. It was bone dry in less than an hour, and in good shape.

I was going with the fan, but this is too cool not to try. It’s like a middle school science project. To the grocery store!
