Just Plain Sadie Book Review

I was excited to get to the next book and see that I got to know more about Lorie's sister, Sadie.  Just Plain Sadie (A Wells Landing Romance) by Amy Lillard was all about Sadie who considered herself very plain and boring. 



The Amish of Wells Landing, Oklahoma, treasure their close-knit community, and the promise of their growing families. But one young woman is struggling to choose a future that is true to both her heart and her faith…

Everyone in Wells Landing has long expected Sadie Kauffman and Chris Flaud to marry--despite Sadie's telling them differently. While she loves Chris, it is more as a friend than a husband. Yet at twenty-two, the plainest girl in her group, Sadie is also the only one who is still single. Perhaps it's time to be practical and marry Chris--though he still has not asked. But when Sadie meets a kind, handsome Mennonite, it seems her prayers have been answered…

With Ezra Hein, Sadie at last feels the joy she nearly gave up on. Unfortunately, others only feel shock that she would consider marrying an outsider. To complicate matters, Chris has finally begun talking to Sadie about their future. Distressed, Sadie will have to search her heart to recognize God's marvelous gifts to her--and find the courage to accept them, challenges and all…

Sadie was in the last books but this book gets to know Sadie a lot more.  She was matched up with a friend early on and it was assumed that she and Chris would be married.  Chris decided that he wants to explore the world and go to Europe so she knows that her life is going to be changed forever because there are no other husbands on her horizon.  She meets and is immediately attracted to Ezra who is a Mennonite who raises exotic meats.  Sadie and her family restaurant buy meat from him and get to tour his farm.  In the process, Ezra and Sadie start secretly dating because she is afraid her mother might kick her out like she did her sister Lorie before her.  It is a great story and really shows a lot of sides to Sadie.  I hope that you pick it up and follow the journey yourself.  I hope that you check out this book and the others in the Wells Landing series and enjoy them as much as I have.  I got a few books out that were quick turn arounds so I actually didn't get to read the next book in the series but I am sure excited to get back to this series soon!!!
