I was reading Chickpea’s blog and came across this fun book meme -and have been tagged by Apostate ( thank you! and yes hopefully i am back!)

1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).

2. Open the book to page 123.

3. Find the 5th Sentence.

4. Post the next 3 sentences.

(ok i always change these things somewhat! feel free to participate if you fancy it, this tagging thing i am no good at!)

“By ligature.”

“She was garrotted?” Asked McClellan.

“Yes. Why? “

The Interpretation of Murder by Jed Rubenfeld. now doesn’t that leave you thirsting for more! it definitely does for me, i just got it out of the library yesterday..so this is an intriguing peek for me.

  2. I am reading this in the library, and so, following your advice, I took the first book to hand that was in English (this is Amsterdam) and I read this:
    What happens to your body when you don’t eat? It slowly stops living. Your periods stop.
    followed by a cheerful fourth sentence:
    Your bowels stop.
    The book was “Eating Disorders, the facts” by Suzanne Abraham and Derek Llewellyn-Jones (OUP)

  4. Ahh, I’ve been wanting to read this book, ever since we had a discussion on it with a woman who was interviewing at my office last year. Hopefully this is a reminder for me to pick it up at the library next time…
