Book Reviews of The Parting (The Courtship of Nellie Fisher, Book 1)
Book Review: More about Fundamental Protestantism than the Amish
Summary: 1 Stars
As someone who does not believe in the simplistic concept of "being saved", I found this book obnoxious. I just wanted a light summer read, and instead this book was a preachy tome about an Amish family finally seeing the light and being "born again." Fundamental Christians will most likely love it. Those of who believe that salvation is by grace and good works (sorry, you can't buy yourself into heaven by good works, but you also can't talk yourself in, either...) will probably find it insufferable, like I did.
Summary of The Parting (The Courtship of Nellie Fisher, Book 1)
The People themselves dare to challenge the Old Ways of their heritage...and each patriarch must choose a side. Nearly one hundred days have passed since the untimely death of Nellie Mae Fisher's beloved younger sister, Suzy, and Nellie dares again to dream of a future with handsome Caleb Yoder. But with rumors about Suzy still flying among the People, there are those who would keep the young courting couple apart...including Caleb's own father. Meanwhile, a growing number of Honeybrook's Amish farmers are demanding tractors and other forbidden modern conveniences. When a revival adds to the tensions, passions flare. With the Old Order community pushed to the breaking point, Nellie and Caleb find their families--and themselves--in the midst of what threatens to become an impossible divide.
