You don’t have time for books, you say?
I’m not sure if I would like to read Amish fiction, you say?

Just pick up An Amish Home and tell me what you think.

There are 3 reasons why I highly recommend An Amish Home to anyone who enjoys Christian fiction.

Just look at the authors!!
I’ve enjoyed Amy Clipston’s stories for years, but have just recently discovered the other 3 authors of this book.  These stories are creative, beautifully executed, and provide just enough background without making me feel like I missed the entire novel.

Variety of plots
Since this is a “home” themed novella collection, you might think the stories are all the same.  Happily, the characters and experiences in this collection provide a pleasant detour from typical Amish themes.  How about a female carpenter?  Or a couple who’s out of the honeymoon phase but trying to start a new life together?  Each story has a magic all its own.  It’s also not completely focused on mundane romance, which was a blessed relief.

Just long enough
Sometimes when I read a novella, it makes me realize that I read only the highlights of a book.  In this case, though, I felt like I got just enough of each story.  It was the perfect amount of book!

Do you enjoy reading novellas?

Thanks to Thomas Nelson for sending me a copy of this book.
