In Plain View is the second book in the Valley of Choice series. It had been quite a while since I read the first book, but that didn't cause me any problems in picking up where Accidentally Amish left off. However, I would highly recommend that you read the series in order from the beginning, as the books are closely tied together--more like one long story with the main characters.

There are actually two parallel stories in this series, though the contemporary one is the main storyline. The other story, which is interspersed with Annie and Rufus' story, centers on family ancestors during the Revolutionary War. The historic story line is actually very interesting and brings out the dilemma of the peaceful Amish during the time their countrymen were divided as to their allegiance.

In this book, we have the opportunity to become better acquainted with Rufus, who has been single a good deal longer than his contemporaries, and we also get to know members of Annie's family. Annie seems much more settled into her new life choice, although there are significant lapses.

I like this second book even more than the first. I recommend this series to anyone who has ever thought she might enjoy the Amish life.
