Page 56

Life is random. I, myself, am feeling particularly random today, so the Gigolo Contest Question is taking a detour into a random little game.

The closest book to you challenge...
Step One: Grab the book closest to you.
Step Two: Go to page 56.
Step Three: Find the 5th sentence.
Step Four: Write that sentence as your comment.
**Don't go looking for your favourite book, or the coolest one you have - just grab the closest one.**

Mine is: She bit her lip and stared at her feet.
It's from a book I finished a couple days ago and left on my computer desk.

In case you're just joining us and missed the rules and rewards of the Gigolo Contest, you can click here for a refresher.

But she, it seemed, had been as tired as her mother, and at half past seven, there was neither sight nor sound of her.

Okay, the closest book was my
thesaurus, followed by the dictionary. Technically, this was #3.

But I want to share this sentence...if that's what you'd call it. It was sentence 2 on page 56.

It was scarcely light, and not yet time to rise, so she lay warm, and lapped in linen sheets, and was filled with gratitude because she had slept, without dreams, all through the night, sleeping as soon as her head touched the pillow, without interruption, and undisturbed by Jess.

Okay, that's a mouthful.

She had not known him well, granted.

That is from the book which was actually in my hand as I read the question, Shana Abe's Queen of Dragons. It's the newest entry in her excellent series that began with The Smoke Thief and The Dream Thief.

If she was going to survive in this foreign time without depending on anyone but herself,she would need more than just her wits and her erratic witchcraft.

"Please have a drink," the table intoned a second time.

The qouto is from Susan Grant's The Warlord's Daughter. The book was next to the computer since i read a blog with an interview by her yesterday.
