review of The Bishop's son
I was given this book to review.This book The Bishop's Son by Kelly Irvin. This story follows Leila Lantz who is a plain Amish girl.She is a traditional Amish girl who lives with her family.Leila haalways had a liking for the bishops son Jesse Glick. Jesse cannot seem to make any sense to Leila he seems interested but he cannot seem to make up his mind whether to take a chance or not.Jesse has a secret though that willpossibly put all chances with Leila at a standstill. Then you can add Will Jesse's cousin who also likes Leila and tries to warn her about Jesse.I loved this story and the ending was so different then what you would expect from a traditional Amish story but loved the ending. I highly recommend this book.

Among the fair magnolias
This book was given to me to review for booksneeze. This Book is made up of 4 stories from the south.I enjoyed the stories though I felt that some of the relationships could have been explored more in depth. I'm not sure that some of the characters were greatly developed and would have enjoyed learning more about each one of the characters. I enjoyed that the characters had to make some tough decisions in which to continue on in their futures. Overall though I would definitlely reccomend this book to anyone.
