August's Book - In Plain View by Olivia Newport

[Rachel]

Please join us this month in reading In Plain View by Olivia Newport.



Annie’s quest for simplicity is about to get complicated. Nearly a year after leaving her successful but unsatisfying high-tech life, she wonders if she can truly succeed at being Amish. A lucrative job offer, a red dress, and the shadow of an Amish woman looking for a husband create a vortex that clouds Annie’s choice. Her parents seem determined to sabotage her efforts, and Rufus Beiler, an Amish carpenter who captured her heart, leaves room for doubt about their future. But when an explosion brings Annie under suspicion, can she clear her name and bring the future into plain view?

Finally starting this one today. Better late than never, lol.

Did anyone else read it??? Or am I just the first to post in the thread?

@Brittany: I read it. I just didn't really enjoy it. I still plan to finish the series.

I read this book a week or so ago and really liked it. I read the book that came before it, but only got halfway through so wasn't sure if I would like this one or not. I won't post any spoilers, but will just say that I really enjoyed the fact that it was two stories in one. One in the present and one in the past.

I've been hoping to get to this one, but this month has just gone by so fast!
