A Simple Letter Carries Inspiration for Healing
Life is good on their Pennsylvania Amish farm for newlyweds Vic and
Eleanor Lapp—until the day Vic’s youngest brother drowns in their pond
and Vic turns to alcohol to numb the pain. Things get so bad that Vic
loses his job and their marriage is coming apart. Eleanor is desperate
to help her husband and writes letters to her friend, Doretta, living in
Indiana for advice. The trust Eleanor places in her friend and the
gentle words she receives in return are a balm for even darker days to
come in this first book of The Friendship Letters series by New York Times Bestselling Author Wanda E. Brunstetter.
My Review:
Amish fiction is my favorite genre. It is always my go-to. Its just simple and raw, and I like that. Wanda Brunstetter is a number one author in that genre. You will not go far into Amish fiction without constantly hearing her name. Her writing style is very simple and to the point. It is refreshing!
I didnt realize the Amish could have problems with addiction but when you read about Vic and Eleanor you soon realize the pain and anguish Vic feels and what he does to numb the pain. But where would Eleanor be with her friend Doretta?
Such a touching novel and shows how Vic is able to overcome his potential thorn.
