About "A Letter From Lancaster County":

Two sisters get a second chance at life and love

Angela---Her mother's untimely death, a struggling marriage, a strained relationship with her sister, Rose, and regrets over what might have been haunt her. Despite being a wife and mother, she feels she has little to show for her life.

Rose--Still single, she longs for a husband and children. But Angela has all that and still isn't happy. Rose wants to be closer to her older sister, but she and Angela couldn't be more different. Both strong women, will their sibling rivalry ever end?

When a letter arrives from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Angela and Rose decide to visit Aunt Silvia, their mother's Mennonite sister, in the heart of Amish country. This vacation could provide the opportunity both sisters need to sort out their issues. And yet instead of finding a new way of connecting with each other, Angela and Rose discover surprising family secrets that add to their strife and threaten Rose's romance with a new beau.

Through it all, the two sisters must find the faith necessary to face their personal problems and allow God to restore hope and healing to their hearts and relationship as only He can.


My thoughts:


Having sisters, I can surely relate to the misunderstandings between Rose & Angela. My sisters and I have had a few (many) misinterpreted moments that should have never happened. As I have grown older and (hopefully) wiser, I now have come to that communicative is so important. If I just take the time to listen to their perspective instead of just mine, then I have a much better understanding. 

While I truly enjoyed this novel, I have come to realize that I don't spend as much time with my sisters as I really should. It sounds like a sister day is in most definitely in order!
