A Book Meme

From Gillian at gillianic tendencies:

A book meme, because it's quick
I got this via Memer, and thought it was a cute idea so I'm rolling with it.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't search around and look for the "coolest" book you can find. Do what's actually next to you.
   

What I got:

"And in his secret heart, he wanted one, too."
