The Amish Ballerina by Richelle Brunstetter with Wanda E. Brunstetter
This was a sweet story of an Amish young woman, Arie, whose parents were quite strict as to following Amish rules. Arie's friend has helped her to learn ballet and Arie absolutely loves it. She wants to continue but is forced to do so while hiding in the barn to express her love of the dance. I was attracted to the title being the mom of a daughter who danced since she could walk. There were some exciting parts to the book and it was an easy read. Arie was worried to share the news of her dancing with her boyfriend. I enjoyed the book.

So she was surprised to find that the brother of Enoch had passed. Enoch feels that he should be responsible for this unfortunate situation. Mandie arrives and has had an experience which changed many things in her life. Enoch also has some unhappy past times that keep him from opening up completely.
This was a wonderful read, as are all of this author's books. I love the history and the location of Montana with its rugged beauty and western flavor. You won't want to miss this excellent book. I can't wait for the next book in the series.

The Carpenter by Pegg Thomas Salem Village Book 1
This book is a real attention grabbing story. It takes place in Salem, Massachucetts in the 1600's where we have history of the Salem Witch Trials, a very tragic historical time and place. At this time the Quakers and the Puritans were having serious strife and as Caleb and his wife, who are Quakers, adopt a Puritan child, the stress becomes extremely worrisome for them and their safety.
I love history and this book really held my attention. The story line is well developed and the characters were also believable and the historical aspect was very fascinating and the story was exciting and tragic to read about. Although fiction, it was clearly a good depiction of life and times then.
I recommend this book and look forward to the next in the series. I received a copy of this book from the author. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

The Pretender by Wanda E. Brunstetter Mifflin County Mystery Series Book 3
I really enjoyed this author's book. An Amish woman whose family hasn't heard from in 2 years, suddenly appears home with an Englisher whom she introduces as her husband. How will her family react to her sudden appearance? Rosa is worried as to whether her family will accept or reject her. She is expecting a baby. Her sister is feeling and acting somewhat unkindly to Rosa and her "husband", Anthony. It is a good story line and I enjoyed the book very much.
