I haven’t said anything about the antagonist in this series, but I can’t keep quiet any longer! Oh boy, does Rachel find ways to cause trouble!If I am to be honest, I will have to admit I am ready to contact Jerry and ask if he has actually known someone like “Rachel” who is (or was) Amish. This character is so nasty! She is deceitful, vindictive, hateful, willful, judgmental, manipulative… well, I think you get the idea.We get just an idea of how hateful she is in the first book; in the second much more of her characteristics come out. The third book shows how much hurt she causes her immediate family, as well as those in her community and in Wheat Ridge.This character was so entirely unexpected, I kept looking for her to come under conviction and have a change of heart, to confess her sins… but it never happened. However, I will say that I was pretty satisfied with the ending of the book.Jerry does a superb job finishing out the story of Rebecca and John. I cried with them, I fretted with them, and I rejoiced with them. Great trilogy, Jerry!After reading this trilogy, I cannot wait to get to the next series. I have just finished collecting the series Hannah’s Heart and tonight I’ll be starting on A Dream for Hannah. I’m just as sure as can be that this series will be every bit as wonderful as the Adam’s County trilogy! Devotion, Doubt, Devastation….Jerry has created a very perplexing and interesting story of young love. His characters are lively, intriguing and sometimes unpredictable. The story line seems realistic to the Amish style of life.The characters were a bit hard to follow in the beginning (Perhaps because I haven’t read other books in this series), but after the first few chapters everything flowed well and was easy to visualize. Descriptions and emotions are well presented. One could easily step inside the story.Rebecca and John’s love is put to the test of honesty, trust and faith. Can they remain true to their love, their family and their way of life in the face of unforeseen difficulties?Rebecca’s Choice will surely find a place in your heart.
What do You think about Rebecca's Choice (2010)?
Best book in the series even though there is alot of heartache. Shows how cruel life can be.
