Bookworm Award/Meme
Melody
I want to thank Trish for presenting me with this Bookworm Award/meme!

Rules:
Open the closest book to you, not your favorite or most intellectual book, but the book closest to you at the moment, to page 56. Write out the fifth sentence, as well as two to five sentences following.

From: Christmas Jars by Jason F. Wright

"A year before meeting Lauren and three full years before marrying her, Adam had opened a furniture restoration business. He called it Restored, Inc., and so far it provided a steady, though modest, income. Lauren managed the books and marketing; Adam did the restoring. He converted their single-car garage into a functional studio. It was filled with saws, sanders, hand tools, wood stains, brushes and brooms, and on some days the unmistakable smell of freshly cut, untreated wood."

And finally, tag five people to pass on the award: Alice, Julia, Wendy, Iliana and Nymeth!
And please feel free to play the meme if you like. :-)
