The Forbidden Audiobook

" I loved how many of the Amish people were drawn to leave their ways by the Spirit and eventually left their church so that they could read the scriptures and feel the Spirit on their own. "

" This one was a little less sad and pathetic than the first in the series. I did enjoy the part of it of Nellie finding herself a little more, and getting to see more about the world from the Amish perspective, but it was still not the best book ever, cute but completely for young girls. "

" The 2nd in the "Courtship" series. "

" I liked this book better than book 1 and look forward to reading the third book when it comes out. "

" Beverly Lewis is a talented author. I enjoy how she brings so many stories into this one book. They are all searching for the same thing, but are getting there in a different way. "

" Frustrating!!! Caleb is just not someone I can really admire - but I'll still be reading the third book in the series to find out what happens! "

" great book - well written. Love the Amish setting. "

" Great series so far. I can't wait to finish the last book to see what happens. It makes me long to live a quieter life! "

" Nellie and Caleb's courtship continues to be fairly boring, but several sub plots have kept me interested. The story of Rosanna and Elias' struggles with pregnancy and adoption are, in my opinion, carrying book two. "

" Better than the first one. And I definitely will read the third to find out how it all wraps up. "

" This book is okay. A great insight into the courting practices of the Amish. Intriguing. "

" A heart-tugging story about difficult life choices set in a 1960 Amish community. "

" A bit predictable, but still an easy read, which is just what I needed. "

" Very sad at the end, but a very good story! "

" i have a feeling on how this series is going to end..be interesting to see if im right or not.. "

" I only read Beverly Lewis in summer for a light fun read. I didn't care for this book as much as the others I have read. I didn't relate to or even remember half the characters from chapter to chaper and the storyline was not as compelling. "

" Good - drags just a bit here and there, but all in all a very good read. Am now into the last one in the series. I'm anxious to see what happens and I've learned a lot about the New Order Amish. I was only familiar with the Old Order before. "

" Another very good book by Beverly Lewis. I can't wait to finish the third and final book in this series. "

" It is interesting to learn about the split in the Amish groups, but this book had too many character to keep track of. "

" This series is a pretty nice easy read. I enjoy the characters and the cute sprinkling of Pennsylvania Dutch is funny as well. Not something you need to think a lot about to read, just something nice to pass the time. "

" Since I live near Amish folks, these books are always interesting...an easy read...I'm always hooked to read the latest one! "

" A wholesome story that has held my attention through the first two books. "

" I listened to the series as I sewed for Christmas. Uplifting. I do get tired of them after a while though "

" I picked up the book not realizing it was part of a larger series of books on different Amish families. Now that I have finished this book...it makes you want to read more of them. Well written interesting story on many levels. "

" I really thought this book was much better than the first in the series. Cute little story and fast read. "

" The first book was slow to start, and this one didn't "pick up" until the last few chapters, which is brillant due to the fact that I didn't waste anytime picking up the 3rd out of the series. "

" I really enjoyed this book, however, I found many parts of it to be very predictable. There were a few things I didn't see coming, but the majority I had guessed. Took me a few days to read just because I got busy, but had I had the time, it would have been a quick read. "

" It is interesting to learn about the split in the Amish groups, but this book had too many character to keep track of. "

" Definitely slower than the first book in the series and not nearly as enjoyable. "

" Some of the story lines are to heavy handed with drama. "

" Part 2 of series. Once I staretd the series I had to read them all! "

" Nellie and Caleb's courtship continues to be fairly boring, but several sub plots have kept me interested. The story of Rosanna and Elias' struggles with pregnancy and adoption are, in my opinion, carrying book two. "

" not my style of book. A slow read for me..... "

" I'd not read Beverly Lewis before and thought I'd give it a try, expecting not to like it. But I did. Sort of. But got tired of it halfway through and skimmed the rest. Just didn't hold my interest. "

" This book was great. Weaving the viewpoints of several characters into one coherant story. "
