A Very Literary Meme

I tagged myself over at Sayre's for this meme because I thought it was cool. Y'all do know I gave up coffee for Lent, right? Things might be a little odd over here for 40 days or so. Anyway... the rules:

Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).

Open the book to page 123. Find the fifth sentence.

Post the next three sentences.

Post the title and author.

Tag five people and ask them to do the same.


"Working cows couldn't be sharing their milk with their own offspring. It all had to go to the farm. At least the other new calves were outdoors."

Bleeding Kansas by Sara Paretsky

I am going to pull a Sayre here and tell you to just tag yourselves if you want. I can tell you that the book I am reading is not nearly as agricultural or as creepy as those three lines would lead you to believe.

If you are here for Round Robin Photo Challenge, please just scroll down.

I love Nevada Barr, but never could get into Sara Paretsky. Perhaps I just picked up the wrong book at the wrong time. I will have to try again.

I did your finish-the-quote thing with my son... very interesting!!!
