From My Library

              Nancy Mehl is a new author to me and I found Inescapable a good book.  It is an easy read and one you can pick up and get through within a day.  Set in a Mennonite community, a young woman finds herself leaving all that she has ever known.  Lizzie makes a life for herself and her daughter in a big city but finds her security there taken away by a stalker.  Returning home seems like her only choice and what she finds surprises her.  What once was a repressive and unfriendly environment now is a safe haven.  The residents welcome her and she feels more and more like this could be the answer to the peace she has been searching for.  Nancy weaves mystery gently into her story and a background into the Mennonite beliefs.  I would encourage you to get this book.  I look forward to reading more of Nancy’s books.   I did not receive any payment for this review.

  2. Glad to read this. I'm always looking for new books for my 94 year old mother in law. I try and get her 10 books a week. My hubby came from a Mennonite family. Hope you have a grand week Noreen! Joy to you!
