Review:
Out of the Ordinary by Jen Turano is a historical tale readers do not want to miss. Is an exciting adventure. A woman,Gertrude, is wrongly accused, her employer is strange, and her employer’s son is highly attracted to her. Adventure, humor, and trouble are found on these pages. I was entertained from the beginning. Jen Turano has a way of sending deep into her plot. One full of mischief, love, and hope. I was rooting for Harrison and Gertrude all the way. Both like one another but don’t really know how the other one feels. It was quite interesting to follow. A man who goes out of his way to impress a lady he loves, is worth keeping. Harrison is just that. The scenes may feel ordinary but the feelings that Jen Turano creates with her words are extraordinary. I laughed and liked the characters. Their troubles were believable. I felt like I was there watching them as the events unfolded.
I have loved almost all of Jen Turano books. I enjoyed the characters in this book very much but this novel was conversation driven.
