A Promise for Ellie Audiobook

" so far, it is awesome "

" The first in a series of 4, this book (and series) is actually a sequel to a larger series of books all about pioneers in the Red River Valley of North Dakota and (the original series spans 1880 to about 1900) takes place in the first 4 or 5 years of the 20th century. The characters in these 4 books are the daughters of the women in the first series. These books appealed to my love of all things pioneer, "Little House on the Prairie", life in simpler times, and very Christian without being preachy at all. Loved them all, can't wait to go back and read the original series. "

" This one was painfully boring for me... somehow I finished it, but not sure why. "

" This book has a wonderful storyline. It has a beautiful ending and the story will also make you laugh and cry. "

" i liked the setting of this book. it was told the same as i would think things would happen then. "

" I couldn't make myself finish it. It was very slow and even halfway through the plot was just not moving quickly. Maybe I will go back to it, maybe not. "

" Clean, but not compelling. "

" It was soooooo long. I guess I like my stories to move along and this read like an endless preachy documentary. Not that it was poorly written or anything, but it just wasn't compelling. It took me a few weeks to listen to it because I was too bored by it to get back to it. "

" Nothing earth shattering....Just good, clean, uplifting, Christian reading "

" A simple story about the complexity of forgiveness written in the setting of a simpler time and place. "

" This book was a nice read :) "

" I really enjoy this book . It about forgiveness. "

" It was enjoyable to listen to while I cooked but not one I would necessarily read again. "

" I good book, but I realized there is a series before this! I love Lauraine Snelling books so this isn't a problem! "

" This book focuses on Andrew and Ellie. Andrew is Ingeborg's 2nd son. (Really he's her 1st son as Thorliff was her 1st husband's son from his 1st marriage, but Ingeborg raised him from the time he was just a little boy). "

" Sweet story. Make sure to read the two series before this book; it'll make alot more sense if you do. "

" This was a good continuation of the Red River Valley series. If you like to follow a family through many generations it is pretty good. It is a Christian fiction book so there are bible and God references. It is not overpowering but is a part of the book. "

" I really enjoyed this book. I loved how the story talks about young love and the dissappointments that we have when we are young and in love and how we must rely on God no matter what. The trials and tribulations are what make us wise and our love strong. "

" Decent book, not great. Plot line is a little simplistic. The best Christian literature leaves me inspired to be like one of the characters. Unfortunately, this book didn't inspire me that way. I plan to read the next book in the series, but I'm not racing to the library to pick it up. "

" A good look at times past. "

" Good books, but not so exciting. I never actually finished the whole series. We drifted apart... "

" It was just OK..not my favorite "

" This is the first in a series by Lauraine Snelling. I also read the 2nd or 3rd (not sure) in the series, and liked it a little better. This one teaches much about self-control, forgiveness, and faith, and should probably be read first in order to understand the relationships. "

" This is the first of Lauraine Snelling's books that I had read. I am not big on historical settings, but liked this one and enjoyed listening to the audio version which made a lot of Norwegian accents. It was a fun one to listen to. "
