Faith 'n Fiction Saturday
My Friend Amy says this:
I always think there's a lack of books that are genuinely funny, that make me laugh through the book. It's probably why I so enjoy chick lit. But Christian chick lit lacks that light natural feeling humor and so there aren't many books (apart from Josey and Theodora!) that make me laugh.
My Friend Amy asks:
Are there some good Christian fiction books that made you laugh out loud and just feel really good about life?
My Response:
I absolutely love Mary Connealy's Lassoed in Texas series. They always make me chuckle. Since most of the heroines/heroes have children, the mischief that they get into is hilarious. For example, in Book 2 Calico Canyon, the Five Horsemen of the Apocalypse aka Abraham, Isaac, Mark, Luke, and John Reeves put a snake in teachers desk and the results are hilarious...let's just say good ole teach loses her cool and her skirt! This is just one example of the humor that is in each of Mary's books. I have yet to read her latest release, Montana Rose but when I get it I will be reading and reviewing it on my blog. Check back in a few weeks to see if I found it as amusing as the books in her first series! Thanks for the great question Amy!!!!
