My Review:   
 As most of my readers here know, 'I Love Amish books!" An believe me this was no different. They always leave me wanting more of the story and this one in no way let me down. 

Author Vannetta Chapman's writing style keeps you in the story and when you realize you are almost at the end of the book you are left crying, laughing and wanting more. That is the kind of author that you just can't put down. Her story line here is informational as well as intriguing as to the rumschpinge and how the Amish live.

The characters within the pages of this awesome story captivate you and draw you into their lives. I so enjoyed Annie's way of dealing with life. Down to earth is the only way I can describe Annie. The choices that are made and the feelings within this book are hard and made me think of some of the choices that I made while growing up. 

As you must know by know I do not get into the nuts and bolts of the books that I review. Mainly I do feel that you should read for yourself. But also I do not like giving away a books ending. That is why a writer writes is to draw out your own meaning of their books. 

So due to the above, I am giving this book a Breath of Life ratings of: 

Five Clock Rating!!!  

Disclosure: I did not receive this book for my honest opinion and review. But the opinions are my own and yours may differ.
