When Grace Sings Book Review

                When Grace Sings is the second book in the Zimmerman Restoration Trilogy.  I have not read the first book in this series, but I don’t think it’s necessary to read it before this book.  Although things might be a little clearer if you read the first book in the series.
                I was excited when I received this book from Blogging for Books. I have read many books from Kim Vogel Sawyer and have enjoyed every one. This one is specifically Amish/Mennonite.  Have read many Amish books before and have enjoyed them. I’m always so fascinated with the life and culture of the Amish.
                When Grace Sings centers around two main characters, Alexa Zimmerman and Anna-Grace Braun. Alexa is a part of the Old Order Mennonite and is just starting to get use to her life as a Mennonite. She helps run a Bed and Breakfast with her grandmother in Arborville, Kansas. Since in the Bed and Breakfast is new to the community she needs all the business she can get, so she agrees to let a reporter from Chicago Stay. Briley Forrester has come to report about the Amish and to uncover secrets that he thinks the Amish keep. But no one in Arborville knows he’s reporting about the Amish.
                The book has a compelling story plot and in immediately sucks you into life in Arborville.  You get to know the characters and sympathize with their predicaments. It was a great book overall and I am looking forward to the third installment in the series.
                I rate this book four out of five stars.
