Proud Bookworm award

Linda over at Are We There Yet presented Jamie of Duward Discussion with this sexy bookworm award, and Jamie sent it along to me.

Oh yes, I'm a sexy reader alright! Thanks, Jamie, for thinking me sexy!

This award came along with a set of rules that I am apparently supposed to adhere to but they look pretty easy so I think I can handle them -

Rules: Pass it on to five other bloggers, and tell them to open the nearest book to page 46. Write out the fifth sentence on that page, and also the next two to five sentences. The closest book, not the coolest, or the one you think will sound the best. THE CLOSEST.

Okay, the CLOSEST book is right next to me on my desk and it's called THE WIFE by Meg Wolitzer:

I'd stood with other Americans, all of us huddled together, heads back and mouths dropped open as we peered up at painted ceilings. I thought now about how I'd never been entirely naked in front of a man, had never been in love, had never gone to a political meeting in someone's basement, had never really done anything that could be considered independent or particularly insightful or daring. At Smith, girls surrounded me, the equivalent of those American tourists. Girls in groups were safe as shepherd's pie.

Now I have to send the award along to 5 bloggers:

Now I know Mo of It's a Blog Eat Blog World is a sexy reader
