Readers' Reviews from Winter Reading Program
The Winter Reading Program is in full swing, and I have received a batch of completed book logs, where as suggested each reader has used the back of the log to write a brief review of the title he/she most recommends. I'm not going to name names, but for a while I am going to post a random selection of these reviews for you to share. This is the first one:The Longing by Beverly Lewis Find this book in our catalog
"The main character Nellie Mae Fisher has turned down marriage to Caleb Yoder because they disagree on religious issues - not to mention the fact that his father forbids him to marry her. Her inheritance of the family farm is questionable while events in their relationship cause much tension.
This book is typical of Beverly Lewis books and gives many references to scriptures and [to] religious beliefs of the Amish people."
