ReplyDelete1. The Amish Widower's Twins (Amish Spinster Club) by Jo Ann Brown~June 18th
Take a gander at this cute-as-a-button cover!
DeleteI *think* this is Tracey Lyons first Love Inspired novel

So excited for Tracey to dive into the LI world!!! Gah!!

Amish Outsider by Marta Perry 6/18
ReplyDelete3) On a Summer Tide by Suzanne Woods Fisher 4/30
ReplyDeleteAmazon has this on the Amish list, but I'm not sure about it, they may have put it their as that is what she usually writes. This seems to me like putting Becky Wade in the Mystery section, lol, but I'll take it if it works :)
Ha -- I noticed that during the contemporary day but, alas, Suzanne Woods Fisher's book is just a contemporary -- no Amish involved -- so it doesn't count in this giveaway. At least the book blurb on Becky Wade's book does indicate a mystery so that might be right but Amazon definitely got it wrong with On a Summer Tide. So pick again. Tracey!
DeleteI'm thrilled with your first two choices -- had no idea they were on the horizon. Great authors both. Good luck!
I couldn't find anything in the summary to indicate it either, typecasting I guess :)
Deletenew choice, I'm going to try-
Toxic Toffee by Amanda Flowers 6/25
I tried to read a cozy once but the one I tried didn't hold my interest. I know you love Amanda Flowers so I looked this up. I got hooked when I read the USA Today comment, "...Amanda Flowers may have just written the first Amish rom com."
I'm in for anything funny, sign me up :-)
Yes, I adore, Amanda Flower!!!!! Love her giggly fits critters. Good luck, Tracey!
DeleteHope it's a nice sunny morning in Canada like it is here, Kav! It's cold this morning, but the sun makes it bearable. Can't wait for April and more consistent spring-like weather! No Amish books on my wishlist ATM, but wondering if Ann's Shaker book counts here? If not, no problem.
ReplyDeleteThe Refuge by Ann Gabhart (April 30)
I looked up Ann's book, gorgeous cover! But in that summary I learned something, the Shakers were a celibate community, even among married members!? So I googled Shakers, as of 2017 their were only 2 left in the Maine Shaker Village, no wondering why there, lol. Still a fascinating looking book.
DeleteTracey, I've read all of Ann's Shaker books and they're fascinating. Yes, the men and women had to live apart and if they fell in love from across the room (lol) they usually left the community. I guess they thought new ppl would come in and therefore keep their religion going, but not too many couples would choose such a strict lifestyle!
DeleteI think Shakers are a stretch from Amish so I'm going to say no on Ann's book though it would fit in the Historical or Christian Fiction days. I'm surprised there are any Shakers left! I thought they were a blip on the 19th century radar. lol
DeleteWell, if it's a man or a woman left and they aren't related (or too old), they could make a new modern rule about not being celibate and they could start a whole new Shaker community with lots of little Shakers running around. lol
DeleteHa! But then they wouldn't be Shakers any more.
DeleteThey would as long as they still shaked. Bwahahaha
DeleteI am so nosey, I have been on Shaker recon, the last 2 shakers in the world in 2017 were 60 and 78, so 62 and 80 now if they are still living, wonder what's going to happen to that property when those 2 are gone? Inquiring minds want to know, haha...
DeleteWell, there goes my idea of kids! I just googled it and it said the buildings and properties passed into private hands and took on new functions. I'm glad the Shakers still live on through the impeccable research & intriguing novels of Ann Gabhart!
DeleteInteresting history of the Shakers re the various comments....
ReplyDeleteThe Patient One by Shelley Shepard Gray. Hers are usually very good, be they Amish or general historical. Thanks!
A Welcome at Our Door by Amy Clipson.
ReplyDeleteThe Tinderbox by Beverly Lewis. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteCC, I just got done reading an early copy of The Tinderbox and it is so good! Read it in less than two days because it was hard to put down. The ending leads you to definitely want to read the second book to this entitled The Timepiece coming in September. Beverly Lewis is one of the best Amish fiction writers there is, in my opinion 😊
DeleteOooohhhh --- now I need to read The Tinderbox too! And I love Shelley Shepard Gray and Amy Clipston! Good luck, CC!
Delete"Hard to put down" is a very compelling review, Trixi!
DeleteHere are some titles I discovered in my search:

Dana Lynn has Guarding the Amish Midwife for an LI Suspense entry, but I am so backlogged on LIS I have put myself on restriction until I read the 75+ I already own :-)
DeleteBwahahahaha! I couldn't rest with that many unread books in my house. I get angsty when my physical TBR pile gets up to 20 books -- and I can read them in three weeks. lol
DeleteI've got at least 50 other CF books besides those, and you don't even want to know how many unread i have on my kindle. It's my own personal library, I love trying to conquer, no panic here over running out of 📚 😂
DeleteThere's comfort in that -- knowing you're a long way off from running out of reading material. :-)

ReplyDeleteA welcome at our door by Amy Clipston. cheetahthecat1986ATgmailDOTcom
ReplyDeleteOur temps have still been pretty cold which has turned into a blessing because the snow is melting slowing thanks to the warmer sun but not at such a crazy rate that it would cause flooding which was a worry a few weeks ago. So I guess Mother Nature knows what she's doing up here. Plus we're having good maple syrup weather. Yay! Good luck, Kim!
DeleteReal maple syrup yum.
