I've been tagged by Jim Frimmer.... Time for a Bookworm MEME...

The instructions are pretty simple

  1. Grab the nearest book. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual book. Pick the closest book. The one book that this cannot be is The Bible.
  2. Open the book to page 56.
  3. Find the fifth sentence.
  4. Post the text of the next two to five sentences.
  5. Tag five people to do the same.

1.  My Nearest Book was Ken Follett's World Without End.  (one of my favorite's too)

2. Page 56 (why page 56? Who knows but those are the rules....)  IS BLANK! So using the next best thing - page 57....

3. Fifth sentence on page...

"The seventh Sunday after Easter, it fell in May or June, soon after most of England's sheep had been sheared; and so it was always the first day of the Kingsbrige Fleece Fair.  As Mirthin splashed through the downpour to the cathedral for the morning service, pullin ghis hood forward over his brown in a vain attempt to keep his face dry, he had to pass through the fair. On ethe broad green to the west of the church, hundreds of traders had set out their stalls--- then hastily covered them with sheets of oiled sacking or felted cloth to keep the rain off."  Only 3 sentences - that is enough!

NOW the fun part - tagging 5 others...

Brenda Harmon - Fabulous lady from Century 21 Beal and a dear friend

Rosalind Morgan - The Rose Lady of Brookville NY

Robert May - working on his first 5000 points

Nickolas Underwood - New guy to AR & to real estate

David Timm - knows that real estate is his true calling

OK guys look forward to reading your Bookworm MEME posts!

Have fun -

Susan

I too like Ken Follett Susan, and got a chuckle that your page 56 was blank. How odd is that? This MeMe has spread like wildfire across the Rain.

I suspect page 56 is blank in order to allow one to think and meditate on what was in the first 55 pages. I would write more but I'm too busy eating Cholcolate Indulgence Gourmet Fudge Brownies (net weight 3 ounces each!).  The rude UPS guy delivered them a few minutes ago by running up to the door, throwing them at the door, ringing the doorbell, yelling something as he ran away. I guess it was slightly inconvenient for him to have to be delivering packages at 3:30 p.m. the day before Thanksgiving. Ah, well, I can tell you that the Cholcolate Indulgence Gourmet Fudge Brownies are
really really really really really really really really really really
really really really really really really really really really really
really really really really really really really really really really
really really really really really really really really really really
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!

Sure wish I knew who sent these to me, though. The name got smushed by the UPS throwing incident. It looks like "Mary Marriott," but I'm not real sure. Ah, well, not to fear. There's still three more to eat!

Jim Jim.... You know I think you are right - I bet you were pondering page 56 while you ate those delicious brownies I sent.   I'm glad you enjoyed them!  I don't know who Mary Marriott is or what you have done to the UPS driver to make him RUN from your home....   Maybe you should be nicer next time.  hehe

The book is Lemmon.

"Already showing a near-flawless flair for dramatic timing, Jack turned up in Shubert Alley just at daybreak and paused to read the famed sign: Through This Alley Passed the Immortals of the Theater. Standing there, staring up at those inspiring words, fame and success now seemed beyond reasonable doubt. "Okay," he muttered happily, "move over!
