The Better-Late-Than-Never Book Meme!

I was tagged by Knittin Preacher to do the book meme.... and here it goes!

Pick up the nearest book of 123 pages or more.

Bastard Out of Carolina by Dorothy Allison, one of about 6 books I am currently reading, and none of which I am finishing, for some reason.

Find page 123: (Interesting, I was on page 126).

Find the first 5 sentences. Done.

Post the next three sentences.

Tears began to run down my face.

"Bone?"

"Auntie, don't ask me."

If you are at all familiar about the book, these three sentences are, in a strange way, very much the heart of the story.

People, tag thyselves!

    Hello,
    I'm interested in getting in touch with you regarding your 2007 Easter Sermon/Mary Monologue. I'm wondering if you would be willing to grant permission for me/others to use it -- I'd be happy to credit you as its author/creator.
