Book Tag

Mindy tagged me with this and I think it seems interesting!

Okay here are the rules to the tag:
1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next five sentences.
5. Tag five people.


I'm reading a book called Beneath a Marble Sky which is about the Taj Mahal. I haven't actually gotten to page 123 yet so this better not ruin any exciting plot developments for me.

About to unpack, I noticed a letter on the floor. It bore the Emperor's seal, and I wondered what advice Father would impart concerning the dispute.

The letter, crafted in his elegant hand, read:

Sweetest Jahanara,
How can a father tell a child some things? How can he say that he loves her above all his children?

Okay that wasn't very juicy. I'm tempted to find a different book but that would be cheating.

I tag (I'm trying to think of my friends who read a lot or who hate to get left out):
Deborah
Jodi
Lynette
Camille
Oh, all you all who read my blog. Play along.
