Spotted this meme on James's blog.
Sitting on my desk, waiting to be added to my to-read pile is a hardback copy of Suite Francaise that I picked up in a charity shop this week for £2.50. And the 5th sentence on page 123 is:
Cecile had a round red face and lively brown eyes; Madeleine was more delicate, a blonde with bright cheeks, smooth as satin and pink as apple blossom.
(Suite Francaise by Irene Nemirovsky)
If anyone fancies doing the meme, please do!

I think I'll give it a go Liz!
Oh! I just did this one - didn't I tag you??? I read Suite Francaise a while ago and loved it. What a wonderful book and to imagine that it's a true story! (well, sort of)
As soon as I own or can borrow a book, I'll jump right into the meme...
I love that book.
