Book Reviews of The Parting (The Courtship of Nellie Fisher, Bk 1)

Beverly Lewis is an author who never disappoints. She always has a unique story line - not just your standard love story -- this book has several interwoven plots and well-developed characters. I always learn something new about the Amish culture from her books. Can't wait for the next book in this series.

If you haven't read this one from Beverly Lewis you are missing out. Once I got started on this one I could not put it down! There is always a secret involved that makes you wonder what will happen next. Her characters always have a major decision to make in their lives. Highly recommended!

I absolutly LOVED this book. I picked it up for something to occupy my time on a plane ride home but I never anticipated to get hooked. Now I HAVE to read the second book. READER BEWARE: Extremely addictive!

I truly enjoyed reading this book. Beverly Lewis has done an excellent job creating a romance between a couple that love God first & then each other. While creating a backdrop for their courtship, she explains rituals & rules. I finished this book with an incredible desire to read the next books to follow.

This is a sweet, gentle story with believable characters and an interesting plot. Although it's classified as religious fiction, and does certainly have a strong Christian theme, I didn't feel like the author was creating a story with the sole purpose of shoving religion down my throat. Books 2 and 3 weren't available on PBS so, within a couple of hours of finishing it, I had purchased them on Amazon. That's saying a lot about how good the story is, as I am a cheapskate and seldom purchase books that aren't on clearance.

Beverly Lewis steps back in time as she describes a character who is seeing changes within the Old Order Amish community she is part of. The story takes place in 1966. A very quick read. This is the first book of three in "The Courtship of Nellie Fisher" series. If you enjoy reading about Amish fiction, you won't want to miss this book. Beverly Lewis does not disappoint.

Very good book. picked up about pg 200's for me. but now i can't wait for the next one to come out!

I like this book a loot but was a little disappointed in the end but have just started the next in the series so maybe it will answer the questions that I felt I was left with. The whole series has been very different from her other books.

Another good book by Beverly Lewis. I am ready to read the second book, these books get you hooked \so easily and are easy to read in one sitting

I didn't think this book was as good the rest of her books but still enjoyed it. Have read book 2 in the series and waiting for the others.

Excellant book . Will be interesting to see if down the road Nellie and Caleb get together .Recomend it to anyone to read

Once again beverly lewis did not diappoint me. Great read can't wait for the second one in the series.
