The page 123 meme

[pjthompson]

I didn't get tagged on this one, but I enjoy doing it every time it makes the rounds, so I'm participating anyway!


Meme

“To participate, you grab any book, go to page 123, find the fifth sentence, and blog it. Then tag five people.”

Book

From Shinju by Laura Joh Rowland which I finished last night:

With a graceful gesture, she slipped the knot of her sash.


(It figures that I would hit upon the only sex scene in the entire novel.)


Tags

I usually tag "anyone who wants to participate" and that hold true this time, but I'm also going to name names this time around:

hominysnark, hollailama, jmeadows, mnfaure, melinda_goodin

He sighs and turns misty eyes toward the horizon while offering comments such as "It's just not like it was in the old days," and "I'm just as good a Nazi as I was twenty-five years ago!"


From Son of Golden Turkey Awards by Harry and Michael Medved.

Wow, your book provided a very cool and provocative quote. My book gave me, "And Why?" :p

[pjthompson]

I was amazed. Like I said, the only sex scene in the book! Usually I get something dead boring.

Richard was thunderstruck: it was like watching Emma Peel, Bruce Lee, and a particularly vicious tornado, all rolled into one and sprinkled with a generous helping of a mongoose killing a king cobra." -- NEVERWHERE, by Gaiman.

I haven't started it yet, it's just the one closest at hand, but that sounds...exciting. :D

The book was mostly meh, but that scene was pretty good.
