I liked the plot line of this book, as well as the characters. They seemed realistic and were portrayed as people with struggles. I also liked the information about the "new order" Amish cultures, as most of my reading in this genre dealt with "old order" Amish. The only reasons I could not give 5 stars are the spelling and punctuation errors, and the "cliffhanger" ending! I anxiously look for the next book so I can see how it ends, but I do not like this writing technique that forces the reader to obtain the next book in the series to see how it all ends. ( )
