Goodbye to Yesterday by Wanda E. Brunstetter
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I am quite surprised that this book’s rating is not higher because I found it quite amazing.  I have become a true lover of Amish fiction, so I jumped at the chance to read this first installment of the author’s “Discovery” series.  I love the fact that the couple is already married.  And they are experiencing things that other couples can relate to.  From the moment I picked up the book, I did not want to put it down.

This is a short book, and it will leave you hanging.  I can hardly wait to read the second installment!  I loved the characters and the story.  It takes a great author to be able to write the characters in such a way that I feel I know them and care about them–especially in a short book.

I am so glad that Christian values are displayed and emphasized even amongst the evil of the outside world.  There is nothing better than reading about people who truly trust in God, especially in this day and age.

I highly recommend this book.  It’s a quick read, but it is worth it!

I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.  I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.

About the author:

Wanda Brunstetter is an award-winning romance novelist who has led millions of readers to lose their heart in the Amish life. She is the author of over 60 books with more than 6 million copies sold. Many of her books have landed on the top bestseller lists, including the New York Times, Publisher’s Weekly, CBA, ECPA, and CBD. Wanda is considered one of the founders of the Amish fiction genre, and her work has been covered by national publications, includingTime Magazine and USA Today. Wanda’s books have been translated into four foreign languages.

Wanda’s fascination with the Amish culture developed when she met her husband, Richard, who grew up in a Mennonite church, and whose family has a Pennsylvania Dutch heritage. Meeting her new Mennonite sister-in-laws caused Wanda to yearn for the simpler life. In their travels, she and her husband have become close friends with many Amish people across America. Wanda’s desire to explore their culture increased when she discovered that her great-great grandparents were part of the Anabaptist faith.

All of Wanda’s novels are based on personal research intended to accurately portray the Amish way of life. Many of her books are well-read and trusted by the Amish, who credit her for giving readers a deeper understanding of the people and their customs.

Wanda’s primary attraction to the Amish is their desire to live a devout Christian life that strives to honor God, work hard, and maintain close family ties. Whenever she visits her Amish friends, Wanda finds herself drawn to their peaceful lifestyle, sincerity, and close family ties, which is in stark contrast to the chaos and busyness that plagues so many modern “Englishers.” Time and time again, Wanda loses her heart in the Amish life, and she hopes her readers will, too
