I love christian (amish books) but was very disappointed in this "set". I thought I was purchasing a complete set of 8 books. What This "set" is should be sols as 1 book. The set is only 133 pages long and many of the pages are just one short paragraph. I read the entire "set" in less than 1.5 hrs. The story line is ok but many parts are unrealistic for instance an English man in an Amish woman's bedroom holding her in his arms and her mother comes into the room and nothing is said!! The second issue I had was that the story has no ending. It just ends as I go to read the next page is about another book (not a sequel ) the author has written. This is the first time I have ever read one of Hannah Schrock's books and it will be the last time! I will stick to real authors like Beverly Lewis or Suzanne Woods Fisher just to name few who know how to write.
DON'T BE FOOLED -- this "complete boxed set" is actually a couple of chapter excerpts from each of the 8 books. Less than 150 pages make up the whole box. When I complained to CS, they actually asked me if I wanted to keep it, or did I want my money back. WHAT? I used promotional money, but did pay $0.09 cents of my own money, and I told them I wanted my promotional money back, and also told them that this is totally false advertising and very misleading. I also informed them they should be gifting me each of the 8 books I assumed I was purchasing when I clicked "buy." Be very careful, since telling CS gets you nowhere.
The book was good. The description was misleading, however. It says you get eight books, but what it doesn't say is that each "book" is only a few chapter (3-4). All of the "books" together is the equivalent of a regular book.
The story was good but I was disappointed with the collection as a whole. To call a cover page a "book" and the chapters a "book" was a little misleading. In fact, I actually ordered the collection twice because I thought the first time it downloaded, that something went wrong. So I reordered it and the download was the same as the first time. Not sure what the problem was, but there was definitely not 8 "books" worth of story. I would not be able to recommend this. Sorry....
I read all 8 of the books in the Amish Bontrager Sisters Series individually, so did not re-read the box set. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the short stories. In reading the previous review, I can see where the shortness of the 8 stories was maybe surprising to the reader if she was not aware that each section was a short story; however, I felt they were good, clean storiesI have read 26 of Hannah Schrock's short stories and have enjoyed them all. I would recommend them to my friends who also read Amish stories.
Each chapter was too short. Left you wanting to know more or for each to go further than the author took it. Left you wondering a lot. Not really my type of read. I like everything spelled out. Found some grammer errors in the books which tells me the author did not carefully read her work before submitting it.
I didn't dislike the book, I actually liked the stories. None of the stories seemed complete. It didn't feel like eight books but eight parts to a story that never went anywhere. The end was probably the most complete part of the story but that still seemed off.For me it was less like eight books and more of an outline to eight future books. I don't know that enough was included for me to interest me in buying the further development of the stories if there is one.
I don't usually downgrade a set like this when you get it for free, but this is not complete. There are chunks of each book, but then tons of missing chapters. I'm not sure what happened. The writing seems good, but the flow is not there because of missing chapters. I like following the three sisters and how each character is developed as you go.
