What did Celebrate Lit bloggers have to say about Lizzie’s story this week?
The Celebrate Lit tour for my new Heart of the Amish release, “Lizzie’s Little Mouse,” continues with several blog posts in the last couple of days. I’m a little behind, because I’m enjoying a few rainy days up on Kelley’s Island, in Lake Erie, working on my next book, “Plain Jane’s Secret Admirer”.
First on May 1, Debbie Curto from Debbie’s Dusty Deliberations said,
“I think this book would appeal to readers of mysteries even if they aren’t readers of Amish literature.”
Also on May 1, Carla from Carla’s Book Crush blogged about Lizzie’s story! Here’s what she has to say:
“This is definitely for readers who prefer a cozy, sweet read that’s well-paced but not overly emotional or suspenseful. Even though it’s Amish fiction, I think people who don’t typically read Amish fiction could still enjoy this…”
On May 2, two more Christian bloggers offered their opinions, along with chances for readers to win prizes.
First, Life on Chickadee Lane had lovely things to say about Lizzie’s story.
Don’t forget to click through for another chance to win prizes!
Also on May 2, Vickie Sluiter had some nice things to say about Lizzie’s story. Here’s an example that made me feel great!
“Lizzie’s Little Mouse is different than is typical for an Amish story, as it really is a cozy mystery. I enjoyed that aspect of it. While Blackburn kept me guessing, it wasn’t a nerve-wracking edge of the seat book.
Well developed characters make this story enjoyable. Lizzie is trying to make her dream come true. John is trying to help during all the mysterious trouble, without getting his heart involved. But can he? Will they remain friends, or ruin a life-long friendship? The secondary characters are equally as good and I would love to go have coffee and pastries with them all.”
So would I, Vicky!
Remember to visit all the blog posts through May 13 for a greater chance to win that Amazon gift card and a free print copy of my book!
See you soon with more from Celebrate Lit!

Mary’s Calico Hope is featured in a Celebrate Lit Blog Tour now through July 10!
Each day from now until July 10, Mary’s Calico Hope will be featured by one or more bloggers through Celebrate Lit online! I’ll post all the bloggers below. If you go to their pages and like them, you’ll be entered to win a print copy of the book and an Amazon gift card.
Here’s one of today’s posts, from blogger Jeannette at Jeannette’s Thoughts:
“I adore kittens. And Mary has one called Hope. This is so appropriate because Mary needs hope. She has been crippled since she was a young child. She has given up hope for a better future.
Dr. Rueben King couldn’t help noticing Mary. And it wasn’t because of her handicap.
Mary deserves all the happiness. She gives so much to others in her community. Mary has the opportunity to live her life with less pain and fulfilling her dream of having a family of her own.
I received this book to review from Celebrate lit.”
