I really enjoyed this book. It is a kind of book that just draws you in to the story and makes you feel like you're living The story it right alongside the other characters. It is suspenseful and will keep you guessing at every turn. It is a book that I could not put down if every book was like this one, I think all the world would be readers. I can't recommend this book enough, everyone should be reading this book everyone should be buying it! You will love it!

Courting Cate

Courting Cate, by Leslie Gould. Cate seems destined to remain single, which is just fine with Cate! She has no desire to get married or have any type of relationship. Not since a boy from school humiliated her in front of everyone! But then Pete moves to the community and Cate finds herself falling for him! Until she overhears a conversation that he's being paid to date her. She wants to break it off with him and never see him again, but then Cate's sister finds herself in a compromising situation and needs Cate to get married so that she can too! Cate looks like she'll be in a loveless marriage forever.
For the most part I really enjoyed this book! I love Amish books and the writing is fantastic! The characters really come alive! The only down side in the book that I was disappointed in was in the end where it was revealed that Pete used reverse psychology on Cate to teach her a lesson. I found that really disrespectful and demeaning to a marriage relationship! Still it's a great novel!

Well a good book is one that should lead you into knowing what the characters are feeling without having to be obvious and tell you. Unfortunately this was the latter of those too. The author rather than letting us experience the characters would just tell us about them. I found the story very choppy, it was kind of all over the place and as a result not very easy to follow. I found myself not really enjoying reading this novel!

The Breath of Dawn

The breath of dawn, by Kristen Heitzmann. Quinn has a thriving eBay business selling antiques and other trinkets she finds from estate sales. Which is perfect for her as it allows her to remain anonymous and keep her past from stalking her. She comes across an estate that is more than she bargained for! An old insane asylum that is now a house! She dives in to learn the secrets of the house and along the way meets Morgan. A widower who lost his wife two years previously and is now raising their 2 year old daughter Olivia. They quickly fall for each other and Morgan does everything in his power to protect Quinn from her past.
This was actually a pretty good book! It felt a little longer than it needed to be, but I quite enjoyed it! I love a book with a strong female character! Both characters were quite likeable and I love how by the end they both returned to looking to God for answers and help, rather than themselves! A good writer can teach their readers through fiction and imprint truth on their hearts, this is one if those novels! Well done!
