Ellie's Redemption is the second novel in An Amish Charm Bakery series. I like Molly Jebber's writing style. It is conversational which makes the book easy to get into and to read. Historical events are included in the story which adds realism plus helps capture the time period. Charm, Ohio is a quaint small-town with a large Amish population. Ellie works at The Amish Charm Bakery along with her two friends and her stepmother, Liza who owns it. The characters are relatable with their feelings and the issues they face. The story proceeds at a gentle pace as Ellie and Joel get to know each other and overcome obstacles in the path to a happy life. Forgiveness of others and oneself, redemption, acceptance, and the harmful effects of gossip are featured in the story. I do suggest reading Liza's Second Chance prior to beginning Ellie's Redemption. I did find some details repeated throughout the book and a predictability to the story. My favorite quote was âGod never leaves us nor forsakes usâ. I am giving Ellie's Redemption 3 out of 5 stars. Ellie's Redemption is a sweet, heartwarming Amish romance.
