The Heart of Bennet Hollow by Joanne Bischof DeWitt
"This book is amazing! It was nostalgic for me because it had some Pride and Prejudice references. The storyline was also unique because it is set in the coal town of New River. The Bennett farm is idyllic and picturesque! And The Pemberley, ooh la la" Read more of this review »

“There's nothing wrong with that. Nothing at all. I think sometimes the Lord wants us to wonder. To ask. To share our uncertainties. He wants to give us those answers. Keep thinking. Keep wondering, Gideon.”
Joanne Bischof, My Hope Is Found

“Sometimes pain is kind of like love. It’s just turned inside out. That’s what makes it hurt so fiercely. It doesn’t mean that it’s bad, and as much as we want to wish it away, it may still come. And when it does, it only means that what’s living on the other end of it was loved. Greatly.”
Joanne Bischof, This Quiet Sky

“Well, for one…” He tugs at the thread a few times. “I want to know how He defeated the grave.” Though Tucker has sunk his head deeper into the pillows, his mouth lifts in a bittersweet smile. Then his lashes rise toward the ceiling, and his expression grows serious, voice so very soft. “And for two…I want to know how heavy the cross was to carry.” Tears burn. “I want to know those ones, too.” “Do you?” His head shifts so he can look at me. To my surprise, his eyes are alight. I nod. Fiercely. “Then I’ll save those two for when you get there.” His voice is gentle. “We’ll ask Him together.”
Joanne Bischof, This Quiet Sky

“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
Neil Gaiman, Coraline

“I can't imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once.”

Micaiah Keough Thank you for accepting my friend request, Joanne! :)


Joanne Bischof So glad to hear it, Karen. Thanks for letting me know! I will check it out. I'd been meaning to tell you that we were chatting about your book in one of my interviews, here: http://cfpagels.blogspot.com/2013/04/... I answered one of the questions about Aunt Orlean and it she was a popular topic in the comments which was fun to see. :)
