Helpful Score: 3
I was looking forward to reading this book and others by this author but had to abandon this book due to the poor writing. I found the writing very amateurish and confusing. I was so distracted by the writing that I could not even concentrate on the story.

I had this book on my wish-list to try a new author. Needless to say I will not be reading any others. It was very childish. The writing was more what I would expect in a child's book. Definitely not from an adult book. I had a very hard time even finishing it. The plot was okay but even that wasn't the greatest. If you want a book for a teenager then maybe you could pick it up but not an adult type book.
All of Jerry Eicher's books on the Amish are good books.
Nice story and makes Amish teenagers seem like all other teenagers. the amish ways of forgiveness and acceptance are seen in this story of love and betrayal.
Enjoyable book. I appreciate the Amish way of life. This took a different "route" than Beverly Lewis but very interesting. Would recommend for a Family read.
