I received a copy of A MIRACLE OF
HOPE by Ruth Reid from Thomas Nelson via BookSneeze. It is part of An Amish Wonders series. This
is by far my favorite Amish book, and in all honesty, I can’t express how much I
love it. I can’t even pinpoint what I loved
about it so much.
Lindie is a young woman who is
raped, but hides that from her Amish community.
Since she is pregnant, her brother encourages her to marry an old friend
of his, a widower with a deaf daughter.
Lindie at first struggles with her new role as mother, but discovers
that the little girl has a healing touch and claims to communicate with
God. Lindie falls in love with Josiah,
her new husband, but he realizes he has Lymphoma. I fell in love with them as well as they
struggled to make their home into a family.
A day later, I’m still thinking
about the characters. They seemed so
real. I’d planned on reading for an hour
after washing my hair, but I was trapped reading for hours until I finished the
book. I couldn’t wait to see what
happened next. If I had to pick
something I loved the most, it would be that Lindie and Josiah’s romance – it was
the most touching Amish romance I’ve ever read.
