"She slipped out of bed while her husband slept, careful not to wake him. She'd hidden the letter in a stack of coupons and circulars in the basket on the counter, where she knew David would never look." 

---From The Book Lover by Maryann McFadden

My initial impression was curiosity about this marriage because of the wife's sneaky behavior. This is not a novel about marriage, but about the book world. I am reading slowly so that I can thoroughly enjoy this story of books and two "bookie" women.

*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56.
*Find any sentence that grabs you.
*Post it.

" She got up and went to the bathroom, her legs trembling so badly that her feet danced on the cold tile floor as she sat...."
