Sisters of the Quilt, book #1


This book has me looking forward to book #2 of the series! Author Cindy Woodsmall does an excellent job portraying young Hannah Lapp in her role as a teenage girl still going through her rumschpringe (running around years). Hannah wants to leave her order and join her Mennonite boyfriend, Paul. She is biding her time until she is eighteen, so she can leave home legally and her Daed cannot stop her. Unfortunately, she is attacked coming home from visiting Paul. This starts a series of events that cause Hannah's life to seem to spiral out of control. Throughout it all, Hannah learns that God is still there for her, no matter what.

Excellent storyline, great character portrayal, definite read for anyone that likes the current "Amish stories" that are quickly gaining popularity.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
