136 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Katie has left her Amish life, searching for her birth mother, and, really, for herself. She knows she could not make herself fit into the role of a proper Amish housewife, but that doesn’t erase the love she still has for her Amish family and friends. She does find her birth mother, but obstacles are strewn in her path and Katie, now Katherine, must eliminate them. There is sadness to come, for her and for all of her family, but also hope for the future and a pending surprise that likely will bring both joy and uncertainty. These characters will endear themselves to the reader, and this second book works well to bridge the story from its introduction to its conclusion.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The audio book was wonderful, just as the The Shunning had been. The book had an interesting plot and I was kept in suspense the entire time. One problem I did have with this book was with the lack of organization of the characters, and how they kept interrupting each other throughout the chapters. Perhaps it would have been better had each character their own chapter. I'm still looking forward to listening to the third and last of the series, The Reckoning.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The ConfessionBeverly LewisI really enjoyed this book and thought it was well written and a seamless continuation of the first book. It was able to grab my attention quickly. I read it so quickly that it blends with the last in the series more than it does any other series I have read. The characters and lifestyle are believable. The transition to the modern world was believable along with the pull to both worlds.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I greatly enjoyed the first of this series "The Shunning" by Beverly Lewis. However, this one failed to grab me. It seemed like it was a very rushed novel, yet, despite this, not much was done in it.It takes off where the last book left it, Katie (now known as Katherine) is staying with some Mennonite relatives and is searching for her birth mother. She finds what she thinks is her mother only to encounter a rough time with her husband, Dylan Bennet who is waiting for his wife to die so he can inherit her wealth.Katherine leaves her relatives and goes to her mother's house, only to find that another Katie Lapp has appeared there and has been welcomed as her mothers daughter. While she was debating going, Dylan had hired an actress to fool his wife by thinking the girl was her heir.Katherine, unsure of what to do, takes a position as a maid at the household and hopes to get close to her mother. Being that her mother plans on announcing the inheritance at Christmas, the next day, time seems to run short for her. Especially when Dylan finds out who she really is.It sounded like a promising sequel when I read the summary of it. However, the reality wasn't as promising. Lewis hurries the story along but its so boring and inconceivable (who would let a deception like that take place knowingly?) that I didn't have much patience with it and was glad it didn't take long to read.While Lewis' writing is always pleasant and authentic, it just didn't make up for the story line.
