Love the story

The story itself was great, but it was read by virtual voice. The voice itself was pleasant, but you had to re-listen to sections because words were not pronounced correctly, and it was just flat.

Great Read

An Amish Widow’s Faith Boxed Set was a great read by Joseph Hersh. This set consists of; An Amish Widow’s Faith, Amish Temptation, Amish Anniversaries, Amish Rekindling, and An Amish Christmas Love. An Amish Widow's Faith was a great read by Joseph Hersh. Samantha Lapp has finally had love come to her life. But pretty quickly tragedy strikes, and she finds herself picking up the pieces of her broken life. Amish Temptation (Amish Widow's Faith #2) was a good read by Joseph Hersh. Samantha and Zeke try and take their courtship to the next level. There is a roadblock in their way unfortunately. Amish Anniversaries was a good read by Joseph Hersh. Zeke and Samantha find many more life surprises in this book as they try starting a family. Amish Rekindling (Amish Widow's Faith #4) was a good read by Joseph Hersh. Samantha and Zeke work on ways to rekindle their marriage. An Amish Christmas Love was a good read by Joseph Hersh. Gregory’s girlfriend breaks up with him right before Christmas and it crushes his spirit. After the holidays, he vows to never experience that again. He wants to find the love of his life before the next Christmas. I really enjoyed reading Gregory’s journey to love.

Ok

While the story idea itself was good it could have been a lot better if the being Amish was left out, but too many things in this series that does not fit the actual Amish life style. Too many characters brought in and then just dropped. We go to grief therapy, try to find a man there a new wife then just like that he’s no longer a character. I only finished listening to the books because I was afraid I might miss something but the same character through all the books just fixed things like the perspective of a man would fix them. Over all it’s a good idea for a book but could have been made much shorter and had a little more research done on the Amish to write it. Too much “English” in an Amish world.

can't say I really enjoyed it, but I Wanted to know what happened.

The virtual voice was a big disappointment. It didn't know when a sentence ended or when it was a question rather than a statement. Otherwise just OK. The story was way too long and way too slow. It was written for someone in their youth or teenage years. Glad it was a free book. JS

Dreadful Narration

I generally avoid audiobooks using virtual voice because, while the diction is precise, the delivery is boring and non-expressive. As a former speech teacher, I notice things like tone/pitch, inflection, and pace. This presentation is monotonous as every sentence follows the same “rise a fall” pattern. The pace is awkward, inflection revealing emotion is absent. In between what I assume are paragraphs, there are 2-3 second pauses. I cannot comment on the storyline because the reading is so awkward that one loses the train of thought. It may have been a freebie, but it isn’t worth my time. This author would do well to invest in an actual reader. Then the book at least has a chance.
