52 weeks book challenge

For the past few weeks I have been reading a Trilogy by Wanda E. Brunstetter called The Daughters of Lancaster County. The three books are The Store Keeper's Daughter, The Quilter's Daughter and The Bishop's Daughter. Book one introduces an Amish family that has recently lost their mother in a tragic accident leaving the oldest daughter the responsibility of caring for the family as well as helping her father run the family's store. The secondary story line introduces a couple from Washington state who are childless and seeking to adopt a baby. These two story lines are knit together one afternoon when a little one year old boy is left unattended for just a moment. One book leads itself to the next as you follow these families through sadness and joy, bitterness and forgiveness, and most importantly love that covers a multitude of sins. I am blessed enough to live near Lancaster, PA and visit there about once a year. Reading these books made me want to pack my bags and head to Amish Country! Great reads!
