The Letter by Suzanne Woods Fisher Book Review
August 09, 2013
About The Letters:
Book one in Suzanne's brand new series; The Inn at Eagle Hill.
Rose Schrock is a plain woman with a simple plan. Determined to find a way to support her family and pay off her late husband's debts, she sets to work to convert the basement of her Amish farmhouse into an inn. While her family, especially her cranky mother-in-law, is unhappy with Rose's big idea, her friend and neighbor, Galen King, supports the decision and he helps with the conversion. As Rose finalizes preparations for visitors, she prays. She asks God to bless each guest who stays at the Inn at Eagle Hill. As the first guest arrives and settles in, Rose is surprised to discover that her entire family is the one who receives the blessings, in the most unexpected ways. And she's even more surprised when that guest decides to play matchmaker for Galen King.
With her signature plot twists combined with gentle Amish romance, bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher invites readers back to Stoney Ridge for fresh stories of simple pleasures despite the complexity of life. Fisher's tale of God's providence and provision will delight her fans and create many new ones. Welcome to the Inn at Eagle Hill.

My Thoughts:
This is the 1st Book in the Series "Eagle Hill Series". For those who have read Suzanne Fishers last series, “Stoney Ridge you will recognize some of the characters. I like that when an author intertwines books together and you get to revisit other beloved characters again.

Susanne knows how to bring the characters
alive. Rose is a very likable realistic character. She carries herself with
such grace on the outside even though on the inside she feels like everything
is coming to a head. Her children are so different that it adds a lot of fun to
this novel. To deal with her mother in law with such dignity and more grace is
something we all need to do. Lots of fun and likable characters in this book that
I enjoyed.
The Letter is a very profound book with
lessons in life. With a message that reminds us that God’s still has grace,
healing, and forgiveness in our lives.
I look forward to book two, “The Calling”,
which releases in January 2014.
Litfuse Publicity Group
has provided me with a complimentary copy of this book. In no way was I asked
to give a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
