It was a beautiful story, and even better than Queechy. I love that the lessons Ellen learned challenged me too. They go much deeper than the usual Christian fiction! I have to admit, I cried so hard at the Alice part. Thanks for the great recommendation! I found Wide, Wide World a few days ago and just finished it today.

I am glad that you have found some reviews helpful. I am so glad you could find Queechy online... I think some of Susan Warner's other books are online for free as well; <i>The Wide, Wide World</i> is a favorite of mine and I highly recommend it! Ali, thank you so much for your encouragement!

I've gone through all of them and placed many on hold at the library. While I couldn't find Queechy at any library in the state, I was able to find it on Project Gutenberg(one of my favorite websites right now :) ) Being a teenaged Christian girl, I am very cautious about what I read and I love that you review so honestly.

My husband is like you...always reads the entire book and can't stand to do otherwise! I'm trying to be more like that! Look forward to reading your reviews, especially the Dever book!
