Mary's Calico Hope by Anne Blackburne

I knew that I would like this book and I DID! Here's my review: I really enjoyed this story in its entirety! Amish fiction is my absolute favorite, and this book is a real gem. It has themes of faith and hope. There's also a love story that seems hopeless, but God had other plans. Mary is amazing! She doesn't let her disability define her. She does the best that she can, one day at a time. Reuben is the epitome of a healer. He gave up a lot to be a doctor, and it's his passion. Bishop Troyer is my favorite! His wisdom and compassion help make Mary and Reuben's love possible. Honorable mention to the cat, Hope! I love how she wraps up the book! My favorite parts are when the characters realize their need for God and pray to Him for guidance. "I think what Gott actually places in our path are honest friends who light a fire under us when we're hesitating to go where we need to go." Mary puts her future in God's hands and trusts that He will place her on the right path.

Go See America by Matt Tory

Absolutely splendid! Wow! I love this book so much! Here's my review: This is a fantastic book! It's divided into 7 regions of the USA. I enjoyed reading and learning about every place that was included. Some of them I have been to and the rest are on my bucket list. The pictures are extraordinary! They made me want to hop on a plane and go on an adventure. I hope the author writes more books like these. I won a complimentary copy of the book from LibraryThing. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

The Summer of You and Me by Denise Hunter

I don't like giving spoilers because I believe that everyone should read and judge a book for themself. This book is worth the time, believe me! Here's my review: Oh wow! This book is amazing! There are so many twists and turns. I thought I had it figured out and then it turns out that I didn't!! I enjoyed everything about this book. The setting of a picturesque small beach town is perfect! The cast of characters are relatable and easy to like. The little surprises that popped out here and there kept me interested and involved!!

Until We All Share Joy by Heather Wood

This is a wonderful novella! I was totally captivated by the story in its entirety. The characters are relatable and easy to like. Titan is my favorite! His compassion and gentleman-like ways are endearing. He grows so much during the book and he also helps others grow. Grandfather Gates is wonderful! He appears gruff and grouchy but he has a heart of gold. This book helped me to remember how blessed I am to have a family that loves me and to cherish every moment with them. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in the series!
