It's a very sweet book dealing with love and loss. Grief is hard, no matter how old you are. Moving on is hard. Memories are good, but we shouldn't live in the past too long or we miss out on the present and the opportunities that could give us an exciting future.

Tragedy left Sarah in limbo when her best friend drowned. All she has left is some inconsequential keepsakes she saved in a canning jar. Things begin to change when Jathan saves her when she got lost on an Amish youth group hike. The two seem to get along and when he returns home to handle a family crisis, he believes she can help. So she moves across country to live with her aunt and help in his family’s bakery. She needs to choose between old and new friends, family, religious customs, and recipes. The story is based on faith and trust of god and others. ( )

Check out my review and three teasers before and after my blog tour stop on October 20, 2012 - http://frommetoyouvideophoto.blogspot.com/2012/10/blog-tour-feasted-on-memory-ja... ( )

For me, this was a fairly pleasant but ultimately forgettable Amish romance. I liked the characters well enough, but maybe I'm spoiled as far as writing and plot go; I ended up rushing through it so I could start my next book. But if you are a fan of the genre, definitely go for it. In addition to being a romance, this was also a portrait of grief and guilt, adding a bit more depth to the romance. ( )

From the moment I start this book I fell in love with the characters. It was refreshing to read a book where the characters are just good people and trying to do the right things. This is the first book I have read where the characters are Amish and I am for sure going to read more because they are good books to read and they give me a break from some of the other crazy books I tend to read. Anyways lets get back to this book. Through the whole book I hoped that Sarah and Jathan would end up falling in love and be together when the book ended. I have to say the author does a great job describing things because when I would read about Sarah baking I would always end up wanting to eat whatever the author described. This is super sweet love story that almost anyone would enjoy! ( )
