I feel like this was a really good book, I just don't know how I feel about the conclusion being all happy for everyone as if there is a fix for all problems, though I get it, I really do.
Rhoda isn't really even the main character in this book like she had been for the other books, which is probably why this is not as highly rated by me as I would like to rate it.
If you know how the last book ended before this one, then you know the situation that happened between Rhoda, Jacob, and Samuel. There whole thing is just odd as it is. It is hard to really wrap myself around the idea of things being as easy for them as it was with the transition.
Leah and Landon's story was well done in this. I enjoyed it all the way through. It showed such growth and hardships and love.
I feel the way they wrote Iva into this story from how things seemed to be going in the previous story, they pretty much kicked her out of the story almost completely. I honestly felt that she and Jacob were forming a small bond last book, but that was not a thing in this at all. It was odd.
There is a new character in this story too. Esther. She likes working with wood, likes to travel, and takes care of pregnant girls/women. Se is certainly not a typical Amish woman at all and reminds me far too much of Rhoda with her independence.
Also, why is Rhoda such a bad cook while they made a big deal of the different recipes she made that included apples in the first couple of books? Sincerely that didn't make sense to me that she was perfectly fine with baking things beautifully but can barely make scrambled eggs in this??
One other problem I had with this book. Samuel and Jacob's father has always been a bit demanding and gives into rumors wholeheartedly and is against Rhoda, yet with all his issues against her he would allow one of his sons to marry her and they don't have him causing more strife when at the wedding? I mean, I get the conversation he had with Samuel about seeing the log in his own eye sort of deal, but he is a stubborn man who didn't seem really open to such things.
With positive feedback, I will say that I do like the overall decisions of each family member and who they choose as mates, I just feel it was too easy.
