I didn't like the story quite as much as before---much of it was so contrived and coincidental. Still, I'll always have a soft spot for Beverly Lewis. I won't give it up, but I'm not quite as enamored. ( ) Katie has left her Amish life, searching for her birth mother, and, really, for herself. She knows she could not make herself fit into the role of a proper Amish housewife, but that doesn’t erase the love she still has for her Amish family and friends. She does find her birth mother, but obstacles are strewn in her path and Katie, now Katherine, must eliminate them. There is sadness to come, for her and for all of her family, but also hope for the future and a pending surprise that likely will bring both joy and uncertainty. These characters will endear themselves to the reader, and this second book works well to bridge the story from its introduction to its conclusion. Oh my goodness, so excellent. 2nd in the series (after The Shunning) & so engrossing I read it in 2 nites. Need to re-read some tonight; stayed awake so long last nite I could hardly see, & want to 1) make sure I didn't miss anything & 2) savor. Girl has been shunned, now goes off to find her (dying) birth mother. Finds her, finds an imposter/daughter, gets it all untangled. Back in Amish country her mom/family are sick without her, & back further, turns out dead boyfriend is not dead, & is, in fact, coming back. So can't wait to read #3, The Reckoning. -- One of the best Amish books I've read. One part that turned me off is a bit of proselytizing, "do you know Jesus died for you", just you, etc. But overall an excellent, excellent, read. Love it. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
