I became acquainted with Beverly Lewis’ writings when I
worked as a library assistant. I always enjoyed reading her work and tried to anticipate
what would happen next in each of her tales.
The Road Home did
not disappoint me. From first meeting Lena Rose Schwartz and her siblings,
Beverly Lewis engulfed me into the story.
Lena and her siblings had a tragedy befall them that caused
the ten of them a lot of grief. Lena had to leave them, hoping to return to
them in a short while.
Beverly Lewis allows Lena to grow during her time in a
strange place. The other people in the story give Lena the space to grow
through helping some of the ‘aged’ people in the community to which she was
sent.
This is a book that I could not put down for very long. I had
to see how Lena Rose would do in various roles in which she found herself. She
missed her family and her home community terribly. However, she was able to
touch lives in her ‘new’ community.
I would recommend this author and her books to anyone who
likes to read Christian fiction, Amish stories, or stories that have romance in
them.
I was given a free copy of this book, The Road Home, by
Bethany House Publishers. All they asked me to do was to give an honest review.
I am almost ashamed to admit that I have never read a book by Beverly Lewis, and they are so popular! Well, maybe your review will help :)
ReplyDeleteI started reading her books when I worked the circulation desk at a small library. She draws her readers into the story very quickly. When I read one of her books, I can't lay it down for very long.
DeleteHaha, that can be dangerous :)
