A romance novel by an Amish writer, based on true experiences! It isnt that Lizzie doesnt want to stay Amish. Its just that there is so much to figure out. Like why cant she let her hair a little looser on top? And why cant she wear shoes with a little bit more of a heel? And will she ever really just know for a fact who she is going to marry like her next-older sister, Emma, does? And how does it happen that her just-younger sister, Mandy, is going on a date before Lizzie ever has a real one? So does it matter at all if she eats one more whoopie pie? Amos seems to like her a lot when she pounds out the ping-pong games. He even asks her to be his partner in doubles. But then he asks Ruthie if he can take her home! It has been this way Lizzies whole life.
