Friday the 13th's Friday Fun

Welcome to Friday the 13th.  Hope it's a lucky day for you!  I'm lucky you stopped by to see what I am sharing for this week's Friday Fun.  I'll be linking up to:

First Line Friday
Friday Book Snippets
Book Blogger Hop

My teasers for the first two will be coming from Dating Can Be Deadly by Ryan Rivers.

This is book four in a series that I enjoyed.  Filled with humor and great characters, it's become a must read for me.

Here's how this particular book begins:

“And that’s when I discovered that washi tape could really transform a memory book,” my date continued.

Yeah, a weird first line.  But it sets off a fun scene to open the novel.

I pulled this second snippet from about 10% into the book:

“You’re the mayor’s… handler?” Wade asked.
“More of a designated driver. Also his voice of reason, though that position has proven largely ceremonial.”

That's the kind of banter that makes me laugh.

I've finished the book and loved it!  A bit more serious overall than earlier books in the series, but I'm not complaining.  Need to write the review, but the goal is to have that up on Thursday, so I hope you'll come back to see what I thought of it.

Meanwhile, let's switch over to this week's Book Blogger Hop.  The question is:

What do you want readers to take away from your blog and your love for books?

I do this to help others find books I have enjoyed, so I hope they take away a few suggestions of books they might like.  More than that, I hope they read and enjoy them.

Have a great weekend!
