Free Book July 2017!
We are delighted to highlight Olivia Newport’s newest Amish book GLADDEN THE HEART as our July 2017 free book!!
From the back cover: “1847: The members of the Amish church in the Kishacoquillas Valley of central Pennsylvania don’t know quite what to make of the Methodist tent revival going on down the road. From the lively singing and impassioned preaching to the altar calls and prayers of salvation, it’s nothing like their solemn ways of worship and tradition…When the divided community faces a life-or-death situation, they must respond to a crisis that challenges them to look past their differences.”
I’ve found Olivia’s novel to have particular significance in this time of political division. Our July 2017 free book is a new trade paperback edition.
To have your name included in our Wednesday, July 19 drawing, please answer this question: Do you think you could live as the Amish do without most modern conveniences?
I am super happy to be a modern girl. I love a good shower, fans in summer and central heat in winter. I could keep going but you get the idea.
I have had many interactions with Amish. I’m sure I could.
You are a stronger person than I am. I don’t think I could do without my computer!!
I’m with you, Ginny!! Shower, central heat, air conditioning….
I like traveling by train
I like traveling by train, too, Carolyn. I think at least some Amish orders allow train travel.
Whoops didn’t read the whole request
I could live like the Amish I would miss electricity and my computer. Free time to read especially novels are frowned upon. Sorry you can delete the first comment. Lol
