B is for Bonnet

by Shelley Shepard Gray

After I finished reading A is for Amish, I listened to an audio version of B is for Bonnet. I had already decided which of the characters introduced in A is for Amish would be the protagonists in this second book in the series, and I was so wrong! Although all four of the siblings considering returning to their Amish roots show up in the next book (#2), the focus is on Jonny, the youngest boy, and their father Matt.

A lot of B is for Bonnet deals with reconciliation and forgiveness. Two new female characters are introduced for romantic interest. Treva (Amish) owns a coffee shop and Kennedy (English) is a house/pet sitter. Both English and Amish characters and ways of life are at the forefront as they deal with what it means to “live Amish” and face decisions about their future. The return of an ex-boyfriend, a health scare, and an accident are events in the book that move the plot along. 

Callie Beaulieu is the narrator for the audio version. I’m sure it is hard transferring from male to female voices, but I was usually able to recognize which character was speaking.

Rating: 5/5

Notes: 1. #2 in the Amish ABCs series. It could be read as a standalone, but I recommend reading A is for Amish first to get a solid base for the characters.
