review 1: I grabbed this from Amazon when it was free...think it is maybe aimed at a young adult audience! Looks like there are others in a series but I probably won't read any others, even though I think there would be things tied up in following books. Have read another book by this author I liked better so I think this was more that it was meant for young girls and that sometimes I get tired of reading fiction dealing with Amish/Mennonites.
review 2: This was such a sweet book that I bought on a whim because it was on sale for the Kindle. And now I'm addicted to Katy and her world. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series. It is such innocent, wonderful reading. I hope to find copies in paperback for my classroom for the students that are into or want to kno
... morew more about religion. Katy is a very brave young girl who loves learning so much she obtains permission from her Mennonite group to attend a public high school. This has never before been done in her community. Not only does she have to navigate the already rough waters of high school, she does so as someone who is very different from the other students in the way she lives, dresses, and worships. I could not put the book down and wanted to know what Katy would do next. I had read one of the author's adult books before, and it was just as wonderful. The author creates complex characters and situations that really make the reader think and ask "what if I was in the same situation?" I liked that the book came with questions at the back for the readers. It will help everyone get more out of the story. less

This book may look a little weird but it isnt! I loved this book and it had a good message.

I liked this. I guess it was about what I expected from the description. It was just nice.
