Love Comes Softly by Janette Oke

4.0

I probably would rate this book lower if I came to it as an adult, but I started reading Janette Oke in elementary school and I love her. Her style is very simple and sweet. She writes for adults, but everything is clean and nice enough for children. There is a charm to her writing, but also it's a style you can't look too closely at.
This first book is one of those love stories of a couple who are thrown together by circumstance, but slowly and softly fall in love without realizing it. I normally find that very cliched, but her reasoning for throwing them together was nice and had meaning behind it. Her sermonizing in this novel works into the story well. It is a quick little comfort read and I like it!
