This is the first book that I have ever read from Beverly Lewis. I happen to find the book on a fluke and I am glad that I did. It is the 2sd book in a series and I plan on starting from book 1 and reading them through in order. The story was very touching and very open when it came to how the 'players' in the book where feeling and acting. She does a great job of 'painting' a picture for you on the life style and of the family in the book and why it is the way that it is. I enjoyed this book a lot.

This is the 2nd book in the "Abram's Daughter's" series. Every day we are faced with difficult personal choices, but how many times do we make the wrong choice simply because the right choice is too difficult? Leah, the main character, has to choose between the longing she has for her future husband (who has moved to another state) and helping her sister through a rough time. The results of her choice lead her to emotional turmoil, but relies are her faith in God to help her through (something we can all be reminded to do once in a while).
This is a great look into the Amish way of life, and although the culture is based on Christianity, this book is in no way preachy. It simply shows how one group of people faces the same challenges that everyone--regardless of background--faces throughout their own lives. :-D
