Fantastic! I could hardly put this book down. I highly recommend this to anyone. Its not a book you can skim or read in a day. Its full of parables and modern situations that the Biblical Ruth and Naomi found themselves in - you will be riveted, wanting to know what happens next!

A modern updated version of the Biblical story of Ruth. Naomi wants to go back to her Mennonite roots in the Pennsylvania Dutch country. Ruth goes with her and leaves all she knew in Las Vegas. The story is about their road trip together and the journey once they get there.
I enjoyed the story and since I have been to several of the same places, it was doubly interesting.

Good book--not exactly what I expected, but still good. A lot of time was given to the actual road trip home. The part of the book spent in Amish country was definitely the highlight of the story. If you like the story of Ruth in the Bible (which I happen to love) you will probably enjoy this gentle story.

The story line in this book was well thought out and had many twists and turns. I believe anyone who has searched their heart to know what home really means will enjoy this book.

I had my doubts at first when I began reading this book but I am glad I kept on reading it. The more I got into it the more I understood and by time I got to the end I loved it and wanted more.
