After I agreed to be a part of the 5 Minutes for Books team, Jennifer sent me a wonderful package of books. She included one book in the Samantha McGregor series by Melody Carlson. I'm glad Jennifer thought I'd like it, because I really did. I devoured that book, and told her I'd like to read the entire series. Soon afterwards, I found the rest of the series on my doorstep!
I'm currently in the first book, Bad Connection (The Secret Life Samantha McGregor, Book 1)
. I was glad to get the first one, so I could get Samantha's story from the beginning. God gives Samantha visions to help her solve and prevent crimes. It's definitely a different genre for me, but I've been pleasantly surprised.I won't say anything else. Stay tuned...I'll be reviewing this series soon.

I love it when I give a new genre or style a try and am pleasantly surprised. That happens often with books that seem to have an odd premise, like you mentioned.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you found some new books to enjoy. I look forward to reading your reviews of them!
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting. I've only read one Melody Carlson book, but I enjoyed it very much and plan to eventually read more by her.
ReplyDeleteThose books do sound good! I've read one of her books (I Heart Bloomberg) and may have to try out this series next.
ReplyDeleteO I can't wait to read the full review of that book. It sounds like something I would certainly enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI have this book on my shelf. Maybe I need to bump it up and add it to my "nightstand" list.
ReplyDeleteMelody Carlson is a fav of mine. I will have to add this series to my TBR list.
