Summary
Book Title: Love Bears All Things
Book Author: Beth Wiseman
What do you like about this book:
"It scares me that something I don't even remember has this kind of effect on me. "
A reoccurring vision of an Amish woman and a little girl has confounded Charlotte Dolinsky, her emotions already tilted after the terrible break-up with her boyfriend Ryan, and the tragic suicide of her brother Ethan. Even more bizarre is the fact that the woman, according to her recollection, resembles Charlotte's derelict mother whom she has not seen in years.
Suffering from betrayal and near bankruptcy, Charlotte makes the bold decision to leave Houston, Texas and move to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania where her brother had lived and worked among the Amish people, owning a home that he left to her upon his death. In a cruel twist of fate, an Amish friend's brother arrives on her doorstep in Texas, convinced that he wants to escape his tight community in order to see the world, leaving a grieving fiance behind. Charlotte remains uncertain about how her presence in Pennsylvania will be viewed, since the last time that she visited, she deceived everyone into thinking that she was someone whom she was not. Too many secrets, two completely different worlds, so many life lessons to learn.
This quietly told story has many unanticipated scene changes, but in the end, Charlotte mercifully learns that true love "bears all things".
