February Book Review Blitz #6
Ready for some more "bonnet" fiction? I'm waiting for my complimentary review copy of Never Far From Home to arrive, but in the meantime, I thought I'd give you a sneak peak at the book on the day the book promotional tour begins.
Would you like to know more about how an author researches a book such as this Amish fiction? Author Mary Ellis shared some of her secrets on her blog. She said, "Since Never Far from Home—Emma’s story—involves sheep, one morning I drove the back roads until I found the perfect Amish sheep farm. After I parked my car and ran to the fence to see them, the sheep came running to see me. What a joy to see dozens of God’s gentlest creatures frolicking down the hillside! When the Amish farmer joined me at the fence, he explained it wasn’t my magnetic personality that had drawn them, but their expectation of sweet treats. Nevertheless, asking him my list of questions on a sunny morning proved far more enjoyable than surfing websites." Read the full article here
I'll be posting a review very soon!
There is one more book review for you in my February Book Review Blitz coming tomorrow. Then I'll take a break from reviewing and get back to regular posting. I hope you've found some time to curl up with a good book in this snowy season.
