I'm going to be honest with you - I read this because it was a free Kindle book. In the end, I loved it! To give you a little background: I was raised in a mixed religion household (my father is Jewish, my mother is Catholic) and I do not consider myself a religious person. I expected this book to be too religious for me, but I was really surprised. Carrie is an Amish girl, part of the "Plain Folks" society of Lancaster PA. I expected a sort of "Boy-Meets-Girl" storyline but WHEW, there are twists and turns left and right that keep you guessing almost to the very end. I won't give away too much, but there are definitely some surprises in store for the reader! I expected a little bit of ridiculous "peering at him longingly from behind bonnet strings" romance. Instead, I found a realistic and sweetly slow picture of love. I found the overall story to be almost like the cup of coffee that keeps getting passed around and appreciated by various characters - it is a little bitter (as in sad) but warming to the soul at the same time. Sure there were some Bible quotes and morals stuck in, but they weren't suppresive or overly forced upon you. You ended up feeling a little more at peace after reading the book. This may be just me, but I appreciate a positive story that shares a little bit of good left in this world. This book also helped me understand the Amish a little bit more. I don't live too far from Lancaster and Amish country, and like they say in the book, us Englisher's still manage to lack knowledge of their lifestyle and beliefs. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a wholesome, sort-of-educational, change of pace novel.
