The Shunning is the first book in a trilogy set in a quiet Amish community. On the eve of her wedding, Katie Lapp watches as the only life she has ever known begins to unravel, leaving in its wake a furrow of pain but also a future of hope.
This story will break your heart, about a young amish girl who learns she is adopted. She realises after 22 years she is English and not truly Amish, and wonders who she really is? She goes in search of herself and the Amish community feels that she is sinning, and demands that she go on bended knee and confess her sins and repent. She refuses to do this, and is shunned by family and friends alike. The book goes much deeper and it is truly a wonderful book to either read or listen to. I highly recommend it for all ages.
