“The Hawaiian Quilt” by Wanda Brunstetter
Book Review by Molly Edwards for Readers’ Favorite
This beautiful collaboration, The Hawaiian Quilt, between Wanda and Jean Brunstetter was amazing! I’m a lover of all things Amish. I’m also a lover of all things Wanda Brunstetter when it comes to Amish fiction novels. I will say, however, that while I love all things Brunstetter, I go into each of her books with an open mind so that if something isn’t up to par on her works, I won’t be let down. I do that with most any author. But, once again, this book hit it out of the park for me. I loved every second of this inspirational romance and the meaning of the quilt. As a granddaughter of a quilter, it was such fun to “see” the quilt come together!
I don’t want to spoil this story for anyone so I won’t go into a lot of detail with the plot, other than to say it’s superbly written and highly addictive! But, I will tell you that each and every character within these pages will steal your heart instantly and have you wishing you were right there in Hawaii with them! Mandy and her quirky friends are off on an adventure and land in Hawaii. Each turn of the page is filled with a message that sinks into your heart. It was definitely an interesting experience watching Mandy come to terms with her past and her future. If you are looking for a 5-star, well thought out read, then look no further than this beautifully captivating novel. Another two thumbs up to the queen of Amish fiction in my book! Well done!
