The Shunning

By Beverly Lewis

This is an excellent book. I loved this book, and am avidly awaiting some free time in which I can read the rest of this series, Heritage of Lancaster County. It follows Katie Lapp as she grapples with who she is and dealing with the death of her early love. During the time span in which they were courting, he died. Eighteen months later, she joins the Amish church. She finds a mysterious item in her parents' attic, leading her to question who she is. This discovery leads to many more disturbing findings, ending with her being shunned from the Amish church. The story appears to end there, but in the last page of the last chapter, Lewis introduces a new element that makes you completely excited and infuses you with the need to continue the series.
Overall, I definitely recommend this to anyone who likes fiction.
