Book meme

[nlbarber]

Haven't done a meme in a loooong time....this one is via joyeuse13:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.

She glanced to Nola for help.
"Nothing. It's a present"
"For me?" said Fawn, surprised.

From The Sharing Knife: Horizon, by Lois McMaster Bujold.

(It really was the closest, I promise! No rigging the meme for a snerk!)

I know, I know, you just can't let it out of your sight, right? :)

If I had that book it'd be staying within arm's reach at all times.
