The Quieting was right up my alley! Why? Because it was about GENEALOGY! And it was AMISH. What combination would I love better than that. I actually had written to several Amish authors suggesting a genealogy theme because I personally have done quite a bit of Amish and Mennonite research as a part of my occupation as a professional German genealogist. Their genealogy that I personally researched was fascinating and I love how Ms. Fisher wove it into the theme of a great story. It's been something I have been totally watching and waiting to see happen. I am glad it did!
I really enjoyed the characters in the story and the events that took place up to the time of the "Quieting" or the revocation of ministerial positions. This was a great book and I am so glad I was able to read it!
I received a copy of this book from NetGalley for my honest review.
Hi Sonja! Interesting to discover that part of your profession is German genealogy. I should have used you for my research! Thank you for reading my book and for writing up a review on it. Really enjoyed learning more about you! Warmly, Suzanne
