I got tagged by Christa on this one! It looked like a great exercise. It's always fun to see what kind of reading material is in arm's reach for all your friends!

Here's mine:

The book was Jodi Piccoult's My Sister's Keeper, but when I turned to page 123 one of the sentences contained a swear word, so I decided to pick the next closest book.

Characters and Viewpoint by Orson Scott Card.

"In this view, people do things because they do them, for no reason at all. Only when someone else notices what they're doing is there any attempt to explain, and all the explanations are pleasant lies. And if, perhaps, there is some real cause for human change, these stories assert that we'll never know the cause, so there might as well not be one."

I am tagging Tina, Tom, Tyler, Jenn and Danielle on this one!
