An Amish Christmas: A Novel
by Cynthia Keller
An Amish Christmas (8/27/2010)
The best thing I can say about this book is that it was short and I was able to get through it in two sittings. This is a sugar sweet story that could easily have been a novella in a woman's magazine. The characters were one dimensional and while the ending was a bit of a stretch, there was no doubt that all would live happily ever after. For those seeking a simplistic, feel good, easy read with no depth, this is the book for them. For anyone looking for a piece of literature of any intellectual merit, this book should be skipped.
