I have read quite a few Amish fiction novels, and I have enjoyed many of them. After a while, however, I started to feel like I was reading the same story repeatedly. When I was asked to participate in the blog tour for The Choice, I hesitated. What would I say about another Amish story?
I am happy to report that The Choice is not just another Amish story at all. Sure, there are characters struggling with the decision to stick with tradition or follow their hearts, but there is also suspense, involvement with Englishers, and a fast-paced story line. I can’t tell you how many times I thought I had things figured out, and then the plot took another drastic turn.
The Choice is the story of Carrie Weaver, a young Amish girl, who plans to run away with her Amish boyfriend. When her life changes drastically, she makes decisions that will alter the course of her life forever. Through Carrie’s story, Author Suzanne Fisher creates a heart-warming novel based on truth, forgiveness, and love that will please fans of Amish fiction.

Hi Lauren! Thank you for reading my book and writing up a review! Glad it kept you turning pages, too. 🙂 The last thing I ever want to be is a predictable writer. My goal is that each book will be better than the one before it! Happy February to you. ~Suzanne Fisher

Nice review!
I also enjoyed “The Choice” and look forward to reading Suzanne Woods Fisher’s next novel.
I thought the plot was great – robust and satisfying – like a flavourful wine. There were twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. There were love triangles, wise old grandmas, wise elders who gave loving counsel, caring sisters, jail birds, guarded secrets, mystery, and sweet, sweet romance. The chemistry between the two main characters was very believable and I enjoyed it immensely.
