Long Road

Beverly Lewis' latest novel is "The Road Home."  Lena Rose is an Amish girl living in Michigan with her 9 siblings when her parents are killed in a car wreck.  Since no one could take in all 10 kids, they are split up among family in several different houses.  Though the younger 9 could stay in their hometown in Michigan, Lena Rose must go to Lancaster County to live with a cousin.  While there Lena misses her siblings terribly and breaks up with her boyfriend, but makes the most of her life in Lancaster.  She makes new friends, she gets a job, and she meets a new fella.The entire time she longs to find a way home.
Lewis normally knocks them outta the park.  This isn't her best.  It is still better than the average Amish Fiction out there, but it isn't really up to her usual standards.  I kind of felt the book was waiting to start.  It was still more than worth reading; it was still a wonderful book.  I would still recommend it.  I received this book in exchange for an honest review from Bethany House Publishers.
