Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Pennsylvania native Rebecca Price’s fascination with plain living began in high school when she made friends with a local Mennonite girl. Together they shared their dreams as they practiced making clothing by hand. Rebecca found herself deeply touched by the strong community ties and deep faith that she saw in her friend’s family. Though Rebecca left home after marrying her high school sweetheart, Michael, she kept the lessons of her Mennonite friend in her heart. Now, the mother of three beautiful girls, she’s found through self-publishing a chance to bring her own stories to life on the page. For Rebecca, faith is the foundation of her writing, and she prays that her work is able to inspire others to live and love in the light of the abundant blessings of the Almighty.

A Very Unusual Amish Family

Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2015

Verified Purchase

I really enjoyed this Amish novella and I am anxious to read the next book in the series. The storyline in this book was not a carbon copy of other books; it was fresh and unique, making the book an interesting read. This family was rather strange or different than the Amish families in the hundreds of Amish books I have read. It seems rather unusual for the Amish to favor one child and treat their other children so poorly. I felt sorry for Hannah and Abram being treated so badly by their own family. I enjoyed reading about Abram's misadventures as a juggler, which also seems unusual for an Amish young person.

I all definitely be reading more of this author's work. I highly recommend these books to anyone who enjoys Amish fiction.

Terrific series, beyond boys meets girl and falls in love. These romances are frought with deceit, lies, test of faith. Very exciting and I had to buy book 3 for my kindle at 2 am because I could not wait to see what happened next. Sweet, sad, tender and faith promoting.

SecretsTear the Family Apart

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2014

Lancaster Amish Secrets (The Lancaster Amish Juggler: An Amish of Lancaster County Saga series) by Rebecca Price, is not your typical Amish story.
The Schroeder's endure a backbreaking trip to Lancaster. However, none more than Hannah and Abram who have been relegated to the worst seats during their journey, unlike their "precious" sister, Rebecca who gets to sit in front.
Things do not get any better when they reach their new home.
(Except from book)
Abram. . .looks around and sighs. "We'll be doin' chores around this place for the rest of our lives."
. . . "Don't worry, Abram. Maybe we won't live that long."
He chuckles and I do too. It feels good. We're the only ones in the family who ever laugh, it often occurs to me, even though we're the ones who get stuck with the hard work. Princess Rebecca never lifts a finger, gets first choice of everything . . . yet she never seems to laugh or even smile.
(End of excerpt)
Abram and Hannah are constantly drawing on each other for comfort and help, as they become the "slaves" and their sister Rebecca the "princess.
As they settle into their new life in Lancaster, Abram hones his skills as a juggler and Hannah becomes the best pie maker around. However, things are not as they seem and events bring long held secrets to the forefront.
In light of new, heartbreaking information, Hannah sets out to find the truth and in the process tears her family apart.
Lancaster Amish Secrets is an impressive story with an unexpected and striking ending.

Nice short story

Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is a nice short story with a good message on love and forgiveness but needs editing and corrections. First, the title of the series is Whoopie Pie. In the book, they are Whoopee pies. The first time I saw it, I thought perhaps it was a typo but then found that every reference in the book was 'Whoopee'. Which one is it? According to Google, it should be Whoopie pie.

The second most glaring mistake was a reference to a verse from Genesis (in the Adam & Eve days) which, in the book, was attributed to Exodus. Given the genre of the book, I think more attention should be paid to biblical references.

Aside from that, there were several instances of typical mistakes like using "their" instead of "they're" but not too many of those. It was not enough to be a serious distraction.

If you're looking for a cute & quick story with a good message, I would recommend it.

great book

This is another great book by Rebecca Price! It reads through very quickly and I feel like I can actually see the storyline unfolding by being part of it. It is believable and real feeling to read her books. There are spelling and grammar errors that should be cleaned up, but not so many that the book is a struggle to read. Enjoyable and fun!

Eh, not very Amish-like. I've read many Amish stories, but this is written as if it is narrated by a regular English girl. She speaks as if she is English, and as if she has read about Amish ways and wants to write about it- but it's not very realistic. At one point she says:
"I know it's kind of a cop-out, but I'm only human after all. Being Amish doesn't mean I don't have every human feeling and compulsion. In fact, without the distractions of television, video games, cellphones, and all that other rubbish, we feel those human feelings even more clearly."
Clearly and English person's point of view and vernacular. How many true Amish people know all about all "that other rubbish" other than having explored some during their Rumspringa?
The characters actions are also unrealistic -showing extreme anger, etc.
It is more like the fake Amish shows they put on Discovery Channel.

To be fair, the writing is okay- but there are also long paragraphs of descriptions about "Amish ways" as if she is telling a friend all about what she sees when she goes to Services or when they have an event.

The author would be better off taking the story's plot and making it be in a regular high school or small town with regular people rather than trying to portray them as Amish.

WOW! What Else Can I Say???

Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2013

Whoopie Pie Secrets by Rebecca Price is a gem. An Amish story filled with though life lessons all can relate to. Initially I thought the author was going a little overboard in what I thought was overly descriptive language - boy was I wrong. Within just a few pages I understood exactly why she spoke this tone and became drawn to it. It really felt like I was right there in the book with Hannah and her nasty father. I love the backbone Hannah had standing up to her brutal father and telling him exactly what she was thinking - yikes! More impressive was she looked positively on the consequences of being instantaneously thrown out of her family's life on emotion. Walking away from her home and looking forward. A life lesson learned and meant to be because Simon came to the rescue, her love - Made my heart soar because if anyone deserves happiness it's colorful Hannah! You'll have to read the book cuz I'm not going to spoil the ending! Can't wait to read the next one- BRAVO!
