I jumped at the chance to read an Amish fiction book by Thomas Nelson. The Amish have always intrigued me and I thought this would be a great chance to learn even more.
Carley Marek, the main character hails from Houston, Texas. (Immediately, I knew I was going to like that girl – I’m also from Houston.) Carley has experienced a few very traumatic and sad events in her life that causes her to take a “forced” vacation.
She ends up in the Amish country. Instead of “resting,” she gains new experiences that tend to change her life forever.
This book was written in a way that kept me intrigued and delighted. I didn’t want to put it down and even gave my children extra television time so I could finish reading it. From tears to laughter, my emotions were constantly being challenged.
At the end of the book, the author even includes some great Old Order Amish Recipes. I can’t wait to try those out!
Would I recommend this book? The answer is definitely – YES! It is an easy read and is such a fine story. This is one book that is going to stay in my personal library.
Out of one to five stars, (five being the highest), I give this book 5 stars!
Blessings to you!!! You are LOVED!!!

Oh, I can’t wait to read it! I have to admit that I’m intrigued by the Amish too, and have read every Beverly Lewis book out there.
