The Shunning
by Beverly Lewis
I've been intrigued by the Amish romances for awhile now, so I thought I'd give one a shot. Anytime I'm in Amish country these books are on the shelves, and this one is one of the first in a growing genre. Obviously I read it pretty quickly, and the plot was interesting. The writing left something to be desired, especially Lewis' way of writing Amish dialogue - to me, it came off sounding Southern rather than German-influenced. I did like the characters and want to know what happened to them, so I might finish off the rest of this trilogy just to have the closure (they're really quick reads and easy to come by through downloadable libraries), but I don't think I'll be trying any new stories in the genre.
Also, if you read a lot of books or have any imagination at all, you'll have seen the ending coming from a mile away.
