Fun, Light Hearted Reading
Whew. A few weeks ago amidst the stress of life, I sat down and took a little break from it all. I had fun reading the latest novel by Jen Turano. Out of the Ordinary is the second novel (after a novella and novel) of her Apart from the Crowd Series. It tells the story of Miss Gertrude Cadwalader and Harrison Sinclair. They have quite the names, of course! Ms. Turano's main characters are always quite likeable and fun to read about. Gertrude is a companion to a very eccentric woman who is quite the thief! Her escapades were touched upon in the first book, Behind the Scenes . As the reader, Gertrude's character will draw you in and make you smile. This story meanders around until it finally arrives at a happy finish. The writing is descriptive and keeps things moving along. There are the good characters and the bad ones who produce the conflict at the heart of the story. I have to be honest....
