Goodbye to Yesterday
by Wanda E. Brunstetter
I was pretty disappointed with this one actually. It's a tiny book with large print that in reality is only the first few chapters of a "real" book. I would have been pretty disappointed had I bought this book. There is nothing that is resolved in this part of the story. It sets up for continuing the series but in no way can be read on it's own. It honestly felt like a rip-off- a way to make money by forcing people to buy different parts of the same book. I'm not sure what the publisher or author's goal is for doing it this way, but I really didn't like it at all. With regards to the story, as I said before, this booklet introduces the reader to Meredith and Luke, a newly married Amish couple dealing with the stress of a lost job. I can't say that I enjoyed this too much either. It seemed to be dragged out too much, and the adding of Dutch words or phrases then explained by an awkward repeating by the second person in the conversation drives me nuts. This part of the story shows the stress of the couple as Luke lost his job a few months back, then his excitement and her misgivings as he goes to Indiana (from Pennsylvania) to learn and buy a business from his uncle only to experience "tragedy" as the back flap puts it. Which is exactly where the "book" ends. I was so annoyed by that that I really cannot recommend this book at all. I honestly would not bother unless you LOVE Amish fiction, and are willing to buy multiple books to get one story.
I recieved a copy of this book for review from the publisher.
