Finding Hope

Finding Hope by Janice Kay Johnson is the 3rd A Tompkin’s Mill Novel. It can be read as a standalone, but I do recommend each book in this charming Amish series. I thought Finding Hope was well-written with developed characters. I loved the unique concept of this book. A woman who learns that her mother took her away from her family when she was five years old. She discovers she has a large extended family, and she spent her early years as Amish. I was able to put myself into Hannah’s place courtesy of the author’s writing which allowed me to understand what she is experiencing. My attention was grabbed right away, and it was held until the end. The story moved along at a good pace. I liked the alternating point-of-view that allowed us to see things from different perspectives. I was up late finishing Finding Hope (I wanted to find out how everything turned out). I enjoyed returning to Tompkin’s Mill for this heartwarming Amish tale.
