My Thoughts:
With three quick and easy to read novellas, "An Amish Kitchen" is the perfect book for those days you just want to curl up with a nice sweet book. Each story has a strong main female character that learns a lesson about love, hope and faith.
Although quite predictable, these stories will warm your heart and make you smile. Beth Wiseman's story appealed to me most, but they were all quite enjoyable. With a nice assortment of recipes in the back of the book, one will be sure to find some recipes that have to be tried right away. Make sure to try the delicious Granola and the Sour Cream Pancakes - they are both very good!
This book will appeal to those that love Amish fiction, clean fiction, and sweet romance type stories.
I received this book through the Booksneeze program. I was not required to write a positive review, but instead, one that gives my honest opinion.
