I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

Fair Are the Meadows: Christian Historical Fiction with Small Town Romance Set on the Frontier of Midwestern America (Home to Green Creek)Fair Are the Meadows: Christian Historical Fiction with Small Town Romance Set on the Frontier of Midwestern America by Lauraine Snelling


I borrowed this book from my local library. I requested it as soon as I found out it would be relased soon because I read the first two books in the trilogy. I enjoy the stories of these pioneers.
There were sections of the book when verses of hymns were added in the story. Perhaps this would have been more effective in an audiobook. To this reader, it felt more like page-filler.
I still recommend this book to readers of this genre and fans of books by these authors.

At Morning's Light (Home to Green Creek)At Morning's Light by Lauraine Snelling
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book of Snelling's recent series set in Iowa.
I read these books for comforting entertainment: things don't work out, and then they do.

Land of Dreams (Home to Green Creek)Land of Dreams by Lauraine Snelling
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I borrowed this book from my local library on the Hoopla app. It was only available as an audiobook from my library.
I am glad that books by Lauraine Snelling and Kiersti Giron continue telling me stories about the immigrants who settle in Iowa in the 1890s because those stories tell me about what farm life may have been like for my great-grandparents who lived in Ohio (and were not immigrants.)
