The Preacher's Daughter: Annie's People Series, Book 1 (Abridged) Audiobook

" This book was definitely good reading but not overly exciting. The story line was good and kept me interested though. "

" AAhhh, what a relaxing book. Beverly Lewis takes the reader to the land of the Omish - in this particular series, a town called Paradise. I really enjoyed reading about the culture, the author being a Mennanite growing up. The characters were well written. The plot was simple, yet kept my interest. It makes me wonder if we are the ones who have life wrong - just trying to make it by day by day with crammed schedules and more technology than we know what to do with. It was a refreshing read with an uplifting message. "

" I really enjoyed this series about Amish life. This is the first book in the series. "

" I enjoy Beverly Lewis' books. I'm intrigued by the Amish and Lewis' portrayals are realistic and inviting. Hers are gentle books, refreshing and nice to read. Or to listen to on tape. "

" I enjoy reading about the lives of the Amish people. This book was very good. "

" Tedious. Story ended with no resolution and not enough "oomph" to make me want to read the next book. Some interesting insight into the Amish, however, which gave me enough momentum to finish it. "

" Fun, easy read about the Amish. I enjoyed it! "

" This is the first book in a 3 part series. It was a litle slow but kept me interested. Not sure the next 2 will do the same, but I want to know how the story ends, and the author wrapped in enough plot lines to keep me intrigued for now. "

" listened to the audio book. a sweet, entertainment while sick in bed. curious what happens after the cliffhanger ending. may have to track down the second in the series. "

" It was a nice safe story. I have already started The Englisher and will enjoy following the characters struggle for what they want out of life. "

" good book, new series about amish, about a preachers daughter who has a passion for drawing/painting which is a big nono in this particular amish order. towards the end i think it starts getting predictable, i have a feeling on how the ending will happen, even though two more books are in the series "

" This was my first Beverly Lewis book and I enjoyed it. At first I thought it was a little light but then things happened that I wanted to know the outcome. Interesting to read about the life of the Amish. I will try another one of her books. "

" I enjoyed this one but yet in the middle i found it really hard keep up, im not even sure if I read it all actually. I can't remember me doing so. Although it was great to see two friends be close and be from two different worlds. "

" I liked the character of Annie. Good quick read. "

" A good look at amish life. I'm sure I'll read the series. A little predictable. "

" This book is about an Amish girl who loves to paint but it is against her religion. She must give up her painting and join her church or leave her colony. "

" An interesting glimpse into the Amish world. Lewis writes a good story and I am planning on reading the next book in the series. "

" Listening on CD. The story is a bit difficult to follow because there are so many side stories that seem to break in at unexpected moments. "

" A whole new way of life and how the live simply. "

" Pretty good. I am going to read book 2 also. "

" Couldn't put it down. Some parts were slow but the book had a great plot "

" I think this is my favorite series of hers! "

" I loved the learning about the Amish. I like how the author brought both the Amish world and the modern world together. "

" Good book although a bit slow for me - but defenitely sweeps you into the amish life. I felt almost stressed or apprehensive reading it for this poor woman and living with her mother. I just wanted her to find happiness! "

" Interesting book about the Amish and Mennonite people, I am reading the series and I am learning a lot, the author is clean and has won a lot of awards in the Christian Publishing.Its an easy read and has a women that comes to stay from the "modern world" and her perspective is fun. "

" Easy read, and an interesting look into Amish life. I hope that the next two books in the series are just as good. "

" Fun, easy read about the Amish. I enjoyed it! "

" I really enjoy Beverly Lewis books. They are similar and tend to blend together, but are a fun and easy read. Perfect for summer. The Amish are a very interesting culture and I enjoy reading about their lifestyles. "

" I liked the story. It is interesting learning about the Amish people, but it is a little to slow- nothing really exciting happens. I just don't know if I want to read the next one for that reason. "

" I have a sickness and it is called "reading Amish fiction". :) "

" It was nice to read this nice book along with Hunger Gamers, needed something to balance that out, but I wasn't happy with how the series ended. I did like learning more about Amish and it made me reflect more on my beliefs. Sometimes information was repeated way too much. "

" It was really good because it gave great insight to the Amish community and how different that we all are and how our world is connected. "
