Synopsis

Annie's People Book 1- A new series from The New York Times bestselling author of the ABRAM'S DAUGHTERS series! The Preacher’s Daughter begins a remarkable journey of heartache and homespun delight—a series readers will find impossible to forget. Paradise, Pennsylvania, is likened to a little slice of heaven on earth...but for Annie Zook—the preacher’s eldest daughter—it seems like a dead-end street. She is expected to join the Amish church, but at 20 she is “still deciding.” Because of the strict rules that guide the Plain community, she must continually squelch her artistic passion, although it has become her solace. In her signature style, with character depth and unexpected plot twists, beloved novelist Beverly Lewis once again opens the door to the world of the Amish.

From AudioFile:

Aimee Lilly narrates this new series with soft Dutch-Amish accents as she describes an Amish community and Annie Zook, only daughter of an Old Order Amish preacher. Many mistake the Amish people as old-fashioned, but Lilly disabuses the listener of that idea as she shares Annie's heartaches, friendships, courtships, and secrets. Unable to develop her artistic talent because it's against Amish custom, Annie is portrayed with a sweet spirit in gentle tones. When her pen pal, Louisa, comes to visit after abruptly canceling her marriage, Louisa is slowly influenced by Annie's quiet confidence in God. Lewis excels in this type of gentle story, as does Lilly in her narration. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
