"I love Beverly Lewis. Her books are so uplifting and fully capture Amish life. She always makes me want to be a "silent believer" in the Amish world, but then I remember that I would actually have to clean my house and stop reading about Amish women cleaning their houses, putting up preserves, doing the garden, and the million and one other things they have to do." — Kristen (5 out of 5 stars)

“Beverly Lewis continues to give her readers what they have found irresistible in her previous bestselling books.”
" I like Beverly Lewis but it takes me awhile to get into her stories. "
" I enjoy reading Beverly Lewis' Amish series. While I like the sweet story of the Annie Series books, it seems the story could have been told in one book vs. a series of three. "
" Very good ending to this wonderful series... "
" Last in series - gets quite religious - no surprise ending that is for sure. "
" This series was so good I could hardly quit reading. I finished this book about midnight. I couldn't wait to read the ending. "
" Lewis outdid herself with this series. It is personally my fav so far. "
" The final book to the series Annie's People was a good book to close of the story of Annie and her desires to paint. All worked out in the end. She gets her man, her painting and stays with her people. Mt only ssue is that Lou's story really didn't come to a close. Maybe Beverly Lewis will do a spin off series on Lou's life. "
" In this book the Amish must go out of their comfort zone to solve their social problems. This seris also tells the difficult problem of a uniquitely gited Amish girl whose gifts are not accepted by the larger Amish society. In this case her gift is art. "
" This one became a little more predictable, but I enjoyed seeing the wrap-up of all the characters. "
" I really enjoyed this book & series,too! I just had to keep reading to find out what was going to happen next. Things surprised me throughout the story. I needed a tissue for the sad parts in the story, too!! "
" I hadn't read the previous two books, but it didn't take me too long to figure out who was who and where they fit in the continuing story. "
" What a perfect ending to the series ^_^ Loved all three books! "
" Good story but there is only so many plots you can have with any sequel. "
" I was excited to read this one and glad she wrapped things up. Wish it had ended a little different for one of the characters but otherwise, really enjoyed it! "
" Finally it ended with happiness for characters, this third book in the series was well worth the agony of the first two. A "wonderful-gut" ending!! "
" This is a wonderful conclusion to the series! "
" Although I am interested in the subject matter of the Amish culture, it became too "preachy". "
" I am fascinated by the Amish life and this book gave me a little peak into their lives. The storyline kept me engaged. "
" I ended up really liking this series. And I think she tied it up really well. Though I wish she didn't give away the big "surprise" at the end so early (her early hinting just wasn't subtle enough). Even with that, it was still a very satisfying and believable ending. Definitely enjoyed it. "
" Humbling.... :) "
" This was the best one of the series. I loved the characters, the story line, and the ending. "
" book one was good. made me want to see what was going to happen in book two. book two was so so . I figured out who ben really was early on. read book three because I wanted to see how she put it all together. was really anticlimatic for me "
" I really liked this series. It was interesting to learn a little about the amish culture. It helped me to see just how complicated we make our lives and how simple theirs are but not without struggles and difficulties and choices they have to make as well. "
" The last book in the series. It's a very good ending! "
" I figured out the series on chapter 6 of the second book,but I read them all because I bought them. It's not a bad plotline, but the writing isn't my fav. "
" An Amish story of romance and shunning. "
" Read this first, and then read the 1st & 2nd in the series. Interesting to read knowing the ending, but still good. Loved this! "
" Whew! Done with another one of her books. I actually didn't like this one as well as the first two. I think the first is the best, then the second with this one my least favorite. This series has helped me see how it's more important to show in writing rather than just tell. "
" This final book in the trilogy (Annie's People), was somewhat predictable to me. I still enjoyed the book. Would definietly recommend it to Beverly Lewis fans. "
" I love this book!! It is the perfect way to end a series, although I wish it didn't have to end!! :) "
" A good conclusion to a good series. I will eventually stop talking like I am Amish. Now if someone was to write an Amish Vampire story I would be in heaven. "
" Beverly Lewis writes good clean books. The only reason why I didn't give this book a five star because the story line is a little predictable. "
" Same publishing company as Lauraine Snellings books...good, clean story. I have always found the Amish fascinating...and this series allows a peak into their everyday life. "
" I hated to say goodbye to the characters Annie and Ben when I finished this book. "
" i'm addicted to the Amish smut books. "
