Strictly my opinion... this book sort of disappointed me; but then I mostly read the "made up" stories, so this personal experience book was not quite as indepth. I also felt that Irene fell for the first guy that paid any real attention to her, due to her very strict upbringing. She was miserable being around her father who was extremely strict in his upbringing of his children - evident by the way she describes her sister and mother. She had a hard choice to make in leaving her mother whom she loved dearly. I was also disappointed in how the book ended, it was rather blunt and I never got a complete feel for what her life in the Old Order Amish was really like. But it was evident that her past continually hounded her because of her immediate family sending horrible letters to condemn her. The rest you will have to find out for yourself... Happy reading!
