In the summer of 1951, 18-year-old Maggie Esh is in need of some hope. Sweet-spirited and uncommonly pretty despite struggling with a debilitating illness, she is accustomed to being treated kindly by the young men of her Old Order Amish church district. Yet no one but Jimmy Beiler ever asks her out, and she always declines, certain he only pities her. To make matters worse, Dat has recently remarried, less than a year after Maggie's mother died. And while her stepmother is kind, she's much younger than Mamm, and she simply doesn't understand Maggie or her illness the way Mamm did.

a good ending to the trilogy
Several years ago there was a Hallmark TV Channel movie called "The Shunning" set in Pennsylvania Amish country about a girl who found she was adopted and determined to find her birth mother, which led to her shunning. This book, "The Reckoning" is the third and final of the trilogy. I enjoyed the entire story. I don't know what it is about these books set in Amish country that I like but I also like Hallmark Channel movies so maybe that's the connection. This book was fairly short and easy to get through and if you like these kinds of books, you'll find this one entertaining.

Narrator Was Distracting
The narrators accent and pronunciation of many of the words was distracting and annoying. The story as with all of Lewis' stories was fantastic! I only took all three titles in this series for the story not the narrator.

wonderful gutt story,
What didn’t you like about Marguerite Gavin’s performance?
Her reading was quite acceptable, but the Pennsylvania Dutch accent isn't Irish! The wrong accent was VERY distracting to the story.
