Was very emotional and fuzzy warm feeling type of book. I couldn’t put it down.

The story of Jason and Veronica was way too long. I got so bored, almost didn’t finish.

Enjoyed this book so much. Death and grief affects each us differently but we all have to go through the grieving process. Couldn’t put this book down- wanted to know what was going to happen next.

In my opinion this book was good but could be better. The story line was good but predictable. This wasn’t one of those books I couldn’t put down so this was a slow page-turner for me. Also, some strings are left hanging with secondary characters and if you want to get the answers you have to buy other books in the series. I read a lot and so what is predictable or a slow page-turner to me may not be for others so, if you can download this book for free, I’d go for it!

I enjoyed reading this book.

The Forgotten Recipe is the latest book by Amy Clipston. It is an Amish Heirloom Novel. Veronica Fisher is devastated over the loss of her fiancé, Seth Lapp. He died in an accident at work. She has been unable to move forward nor is she grieving properly. Veronica has kept herself busy cleaning. She sets out to clean the families’ attic and discovers a beautiful hope chest. Inside the trunk she finds a recipe for her grandmother’s raspberry pie recipe. Veronica quits cleaning the attic to go off and try the recipe. It turns out to be a success and quite popular with locals and tourists. Jason Huyard works at the Lancaster Shed Company (owned by his father and uncle). Seth Lapp was his best friend and co-worker. Jason was there when Seth feel to his death. He is having a hard time dealing with the loss of his friend. He has been thinking quite a bit about Veronica. Seth talked about her all the time and Jason feels like he knows her. His mother sends him to buy a raspberry pie and discovers Veronica. Jason does not tell her that he knew Seth (big mistake). Slowly Jason and Veronica spend time together and get to know each other. Veronica is hesitant at first because she had made a promise to love only Seth when he proposed. Veronica and Jason have something special. But can Jason’s secret ruin their relationship? Will Veronica ever be able to trust again? The Forgotten Recipe is a lovely novel. It is well written and heartwarming. It is about love, soul mates, forgiveness and trust (and a good pie recipe). It is the type of book that you want to read on a cold winter evening in front of a fireplace. I give The Forgotten Recipe 4.5 out of 5 stars. You cannot go wrong with one of Amy Clipston’s novels. They are always enjoyable to read and they draw the reader into the story. The story is left with a cliffhanger (or a secret not revealed). We now have to wait for the next book. That is the only thing I found frustrating. I wish everything had been wrapped up in this book (though I do understand why the author did it). I received a complimentary copy of The Forgotten Recipe from NetGalley (and the publisher) in exchange for an honest review.
