What a sweet story of how even someone with disabilities, as other people viewed Phoebe, can learn to find their place in this world. She is asked to help a young widower, Seth, with his five orphaned brothers. Set during the holidays, Seth and Phoebe learn to care for each other, but will it be too late before they share their love?

I enjoyed this book very much and would highly recommend it to those who enjoy reading Amish people.

Thank you to NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for the advanced copy of the book. The opinion expressed is my own.

An Amish Christmas Match is such an inspiring story written by Winnie Griggs. I enjoyed this story for several reason but watching Phoebe overcome her disabilities and the way people receive her was inspiring. I enjoyed each character within the story as well. This author has a unique writing style that draws the reader in and keeps them wanting more. The cover of this book really puts you in the holiday mood.

I received an advanced complimentary copy of this book to read through Netgalley but was not expected to post a favorable review.

This story is not at all what I expected. For one, I expected to read a little and then set it aside until I could read more. However, once I got started, I could not put it down until I'd read the very last page. The second unexpected was the wonderful characters in the story. Each one added such a special touch to the story. It was absolutely wonderful!

And what did I love? I loved seeing Phoebe become her own person by overcoming her past and the limitations her family had placed on her. She is extremely unique, loving, intuitive, caring, and such an overcomer.

I also loved seeing Seth's transformation, especially how it seemed to happen without him noticing it. Watching him go through the changes, along with the impact of those changes and Phoebe's influence on him and the brothers, was just sheer joy.

I can't say enough about this wonderful story. I can only add that it is a definite must-read that you don't want to miss.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. The Beiler brothers were so much fun, and so caring of Phoebe. And then there was Seth, trying to be dad to everyone. Such well developed characters, I'd love to see more of this family.

Phoebe just wanted to be treated "normal". Edna was trying to bring confidence to her. I loved both of these women. It would be great to sit down and have coffee with them.

Full of fun, family, friendship, and laughter, only one thing kept me from giving it 5 stars. It's a Christmas story but didn't have a lot of Christmasy stuff in it. Just a bit towards the end, But if you enjoy Amish fiction do read this book. You won't be sorry!
