More Books to Enjoy

There are many that have different kinds of hobbies, such as, sewing, doing puzzles, making model airplanes or cars.  But, than there are those who love to read.  That is me, I am an avid reader.  Once I get a hold of a book and it captures me from the beginning, I cannot put it down.  I created this blog to share with others what I like to read.  In hopes that I can influence those that do not read, to at least give it a chance and pickup a book.  My greatest hope is that you will find a book on this blog that you will enjoy reading.

More reading:  The Author is Beth Wiseman, she has written the "A Daughters of the Promise" novels.  Enjoy "Plain Perfect" and "Plain Pursuit."  There are two more novels in the series, "Plain Promise" and "Plain Paradise."  I have not read these two, but will shortly get to them, and will post my thoughts on my blog once I have read them.


On the rolling plains of Lancaster County, PA., Lillian Miller is searching for her grandparents house....and so much more.  After years of neglect and abuse, she is turning to a lifestyle of simplicity among the Amish to find herself.



Carley Marek experiences culture shock when she visits her friend Lillian's family on their farm deep in Amish country.  She'll get an article out of the visit---and maybe some of Lillian's newfound peace will somehow rub off on her.
I can't say enough about these two novels that were written by Author Beth Wiseman.  I was truly touched, and at times brought to tears of the struggles each one endure in the story of "Plain Perfect" and "Plain Pursuit."  I look forward in reading more novels from Beth Wiseman.  I recommend that you pickup these books and read them for yourself.  I guarantee you will be touched.
