I've been tagged by Linda. The idea is to share with others what you are reading and in turn you get to find out what they're reading. I think it will inspire each other to pick up some new and interesting selections at the library or the nearest book store. Especially if you've been known to read a text book for enjoyment.
Here's how it works ~
1. Pick up the nearest book, one with at least 123 pages (therefore Dr. Seuss doesn't fit into this category)
2. Open to page 123
3. Find the 5th sentence
4. Post the next 3 sentences
5. Tag 5 people
The book nearest me is Charles Faudree's French Country Signature. Page 123 is a photograph of a beautiful bedroom...
The book I am currently reading is Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See~
This was true for me as well. "She searched the county, traveling far outside her usual matchmaking territory until she heard about you from the diviner. Once she met you, she decided to hitch my fate to yours."
Doesn't that make you want to run out and purchase the book? Isn't that gripping? Are you on the edge of your seat?
Okay, I tag Alicia Johnson, Alicia Walker, Kathryn, Lindsey and Donna (Lindsey, post for your mom!)

At least you are reading more interesting stuff than I am. Stef just bought the Twilight books and she loves them. Once she re-reads the first book, then I'll start. I'm excited! :-)
just thought i'd comment on your comment from me about my book addiction! :) I'm pitiful but glad I can't believe I went so long without discovering them! I am also excited about the movie I think the actor who plays edward it pretty close to what i would imagine, i only have a hard time remembering that his body if only of a 17 year old! He always sounds so much older due to him actually being near 100! Let me know if you have any suggestions on books, I've been reading a new one "a great and terrible beauty" but haven't decided if i really like it or not! too bad we live so far away you could join us girls in going to see the twilight movie!
