The Longing (The Courtship of Nellie Fisher, Book 3)

I truly loved this series of three books! I would recommend it to anyone wanting to read about how the Lord can work to change lives and open up hearts to His Word!

That's how a community needs to be like. Christlike and gentle, like the Savior is. I'm glad that Nellie and Caleb got back together with a little help from his Mennonite cousin.

As advertised it was used but like new. Speedy delivery!

Love love love! This series is the best I’ve read in a long time. I was so over joyed at all the salvation and coming to know the Lord personally was included.. not many books include this. It was just awe inspiring

Love the book

Beverly Lewis specializes in writing stories set in Pennsylvania's Amish country, and the final entry in her Courtship of Nellie Fisher trilogy brings us closure on another set of well-written Christian fiction. Lewis has found her niche in the book industry, and she fills it very well with entirely readable novels that take you to another place and mind-set.Nellie Mae Fisher has been separated from her beau Caleb when her new religious convictions come between the two lovers and their families. Nellie is trying to go on with her life alone, but she is filled with anxiety not only for Caleb but for her older sister Rhoda who has left the Plain life, and her friend Rosanna who has lost her adopted twins. In addition, Nellie is still mourning the loss of her younger sister Suzy, but she is trying to feel God's presence in her life as things change in her Amish community in the 1960s. Nellie's dearest wish is for Caleb to decide to come to the New Order Amish, but after his father is gravely injured, she fears he will be forever gone from her life. Lots of circumstances must change before any happiness can be found for the members of Honey Brook community.As usual, I like Lewis's easy writing style and her characters; Lewis has a gift for creating believable people for whom you care a great deal. This book is very preachy, however; for regular readers of Christian fiction that probably won't matter, but at times it does get a bit tedious. In addition, Lewis has a tendency to tie things up way too neatly, and changes of heart seem to be too quick to be realistic. In fact, if I could I would've rated this one 3.5 for the overly hurried happy endings, but since I do enjoy Lewis's stories and the wonderful world she creates, I feel that overall 4 stars is apt. I do hope Lewis will stray from the formula she's been using in her past two series and find some new twists she can spin in our beloved Lancaster County.

This seller sent a wrapped, quality product with instructions on how I could reach them with any problems. I highly recommend this seller and plan to use them again. Thank you!

I really like the story line in Beverly Lewis' books. It is nice to be able to follow families that really seem real.

these books arrived on time well packaged in excellent condition,the stories are fantastic I can almost feel I am in pensylvania,I am on my 4th book,started reading some that were given me while in hospital took my mind off the pain.

A good wholesome story of love and lust in the most moderate way possible. I have read several from this series. Enjoyed them all for their simplicity.

As always Beverly lewis has penned another book which I was unable to put down until I had finished it.Love her books re Amish they are diffrent to the modern fiction I usually read

Enjoyed reading about the changes in the Armish people,about them getting to realise the Grace of God and Salvation through Jesus alone

An interesting look into another way of living I enjoyed both books
