My five star ++++ review of The Heart of Splendid Lake by Amy Clipston.
This was another amazing more than 5 star read from Amy Clipston. The more I read of hers, the more I want to. Another Amy book that I read in two sittings. Could have been one but I didn't want to stay up all night reading.
I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the characters. I felt like I was at Splendid Lake and was having a friend tell me what had been going on. How sensitively Amy handled the the loss and health issues was brilliant. What a learning experience for some who read this and have never experienced those things in their lives.
Each contemporary fiction book is so different from Amy's Amish books, which are totally wonderful too and got me hooked on her. Amy has this way of engaging the readers, painting a picture with words and making us want to pack our bags and go to all the wonderful places she is writing about which although fictitious remind us of places we know.
If you are an Amy fan but haven't read this one yet, it is a must read and must add to your TBR list. If you are new to Amy's books, this is a wonderful introduction and I am sure you will be like most of us who read her...completely drawn in and hooked.
Thank you Amy Clipston for keeping us enthralled with every word you write, and I cannot wait to read more.
