Our book club is reading this for June. I loved this book. It was so romantic! This author also wrote A Walk To Remember and The Notebook. It's told from the perspective of a man who had been married almost 30 years and is about his relationship with his wife. Oh, and if any of you read it, let me know so we can discuss.

I'v Been Tagged in Australia
My daughter sent me a book called the "Master." I am less and half way through it but I would recommend it. It is about the Saviors life as a boy...so far.
pg 123 sentence 5 reads:
The man next to me appeared as nervous as I felt.
I would have choosen a better one but that's it. Have a good day mate.

Middle School is Worse Than Meatloaf: A Year Told Through Stuff
I am delighted by this book. There is no narrative at all! The entire book consists of pictures of "stuff": school papers, notes left on the fridge to the main character by her mother, drug store receipts and birthday cards, etc. I loved the format and I loved even more what the format revealed about the main character during her 7th grade year. This book was a delight.

"And the other two ends of the two wreathen chains thou shalt fasten in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod before it."
Now try to guess what the heck it means and what it's from. Plus does anyone know what an ouch is?

I'm it
Here's what I found on page 123 of The Book Thief by Markus Zusack. It's actually a title page for part three of the book, so I'm just going to post what's on the page (no fifth sentence even being in existence).

"She paused, then saw that two little sprayer drones were hovering protectively over his head."
I haven't gotten to this page yet. I'm on 101 I think. Matt read me the sentence so I didn't see anything else. Even 22 pages ahead is too spoiling for me. Fun tag.
