Book tag

I've been tagged! What a great game. I don't even mind being "it." Thanks, Rebecca. Here are the rules:

1. Find the nearest book to you.


2. Name the book and author.


3. Turn to page 123.


4. Go to the fifth sentence on the page.


5. Copy out the next 3 sentences and post to your blog.


6. Tag someone else.

Here goes, then.

From Every Living Thing, by James Herriot:

"This is a condition that often affects neutered toms like your Peter. I'll be able to clear it up with a hormone injection and a course of tablets." Peter didn't stop purring as I inserted the needle under his skin — he was a cat who appreciated any kind of attention — but I noticed that his owners looked a little uneasy.

I love the Herriot books! And I found out a few years ago that my friend Andi actually met their author. Very cool.

Tag, Sarah — you're it!
