"Anything You Ask" by Lynn Kellan is a Sweet Humorous Romance Novella

Image Source: author's blog

Anything You Ask by Lynn Kellan is a fast-moving romance about Dani, a widowed professor with two sons, who is left with a run-down farm and huge debts.  Facts about her late husband come out gradually when she turns to Hale, her brother-in-law for help with the farm.  He is more than willing to help her out because he secretly loved her all along so jumps at the chance to prove himself to her. 

I got into this book quickly and liked both the main characters so couldn't help but root for them to fall in love with each other.  The story line was unique and kept my interest.  I looked forward to seeing what would happen next!  It was over before I knew it but I liked that it didn't drag along at all.  I recommend it if you are looking for a light romance!

3 Tuesday Teasers: 1 Romance and 2 Non-Fiction

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should  Be Reading. Anyone can play along, so I thought  I  would play for fun! Just do the following

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page (well, we cheat and choose specific ones)
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on  that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away!   You don’t  want  to  ruin the  book for others!)
• Share the title and author, too, so that other TT participants can  add the book to their TBR  Lists  if they  like your teaser.   

Karen's:

"Yes, you can bunk with me. If we're really going to do this, I have only one request."

From Loc. 519 on Kindle of Anything You Ask by Lynn Kellan. (My review will be up tomorrow.)

Some who had been practicing witchcraft even brought their books and burned them in public. These books were worth 50,000 silver coins.

From Acts 19:19 of the Contemporary English Version of The Holy Bible.

Gerard's:

Meanwhile, Charlie's supervisor informed him that he would be put on indefinite paid leave, effective immediately. That didn't sound so bad, being paid not to work, until he sat home in his basement apartment, thinking, depressed, wondering if they'd come for him or if he should set it up so he could be a tragic suicide in jail, as he had after breaking into Michelle's apartment.

From page 50 of The Good Nurse--A True Story of Medicine, Madness, and Murder by Charles Graeber.

I hope you will check out a teaser from the book I wrote:  My Funny Dad, Harry

Happy Reading!

"Warrior Girl" by Matt Lazar and Amanda Thomas

Warrior Girl by Matt Lazar and Amanda Thomas is about a young girl from Korea who goes to Oxford to better herself. I enjoyed reading about the people who she met and the plot is pretty good too. I got into it right away and it goes quick! It's very well written.

Great Memorial Weekend Read: "Frozen In Time" by Mitchell Zuckoff

WOW!  What an amazing story Frozen in Time by Mitchell Zuckoff is!  It is "an epic story of survival and a modern quest for lost heroes of World War II."  I always really enjoy a true story that I am not up to speed on at all and this book fits the bill! 

In 1942 a cargo plane crashed into a Greenland ice cap.  A rescue plane followed and it crashed too!  Then another follow-up plane went out and vanished!  Do I have your interest yet?  It's all true! 

The research the author did is amazing and his writing gave me the feel I was right there.  I really enjoyed this book a lot and can't wait for Mitchell Zuckoff's next book because his first two have been great!  I also read and liked his first book, Lost in Shangri-La. (See my review of this one too--click the link.)

"Permanent Record" by Leslie Stella

Permanent Record by Leslie Stella is a young adult novel about a boy going to a private high school.  There are two problems:  (1) he does not practice the faith of the school; and (2) he does not go along with the rules of the school as in selling candy bars and following the football team.  Consequently, he gets bullied a lot! I thought this book was pretty spot-on in showing what goes on in private high schools (I went to one myself and got bullied).  There are some laughs along the way and a couple of surprises.
