Nothing Better To Do

...so I'll respond to Kiki's tag...tag 5 more:

Jude
A's Mom
Mrs. G.
Aimee
Chick

Here are the directions:
1. Pick up the nearest book ( of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people & post a comment here once you post it to your blog, so I can come see.

Here's my entry:

"Why don't you go upstairs, Laila. Go on."

As she moved toward the steps Laila heard the visitor say to Babi that he had news from Panjshir.

From A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini.

Read my review of this book on Winter Reading Challenge.

Great book, although not quite as great as The Kite Runner.

Great book, I loved it. (But yeah, Kite Runner was better.)

Now that's a meme I can do! I'll be sure to do it when I get home from my mom's. Or wait, it might even be interesting to do it here at her house! You never know what you will find!

"Laughter in these poorly designed places rose a few feet into the air and disspited like steam, always giving me the feeling I was bombing."

....Steve Martin from his biography, "Born Standing up".

Great meme! An intelligent one for a change. :-)

You see how far behind I am from reading blogs. I'll do this tomorrow. I have a great James Patterson book I'm reading right now.

Wonderful book - and oh that Mrs. G? She's everywhere.
