I’ve been tagged by David Heddle for this meme. I am compelled to follow these instructions.
Take ten books, and transcribe the fifth sentence from page fifty six.
In keeping with the 5, 56 thing, Make sure that at least five books are fiction, provide five hints, and pass the meme on to six other bloggers.
So here goes:
Ten fifth sentences from page 56 of ten books
