Customer Reviews

I love this series. I'm on the 6th Book. The Movies are nothing like the books.

Loved it. Kathryn Hingle is a very good attress. If you love stories from the 1800s in the west. You'll love this series. I Highly recommend reading all 8 books

Loved it!!!

I watched the movies as a kid and haven’t been able to read a book in over 10 years because I will always fall asleep within a few pages. I could not put this book down. I read the entire book in less than 6 days and same for book #2. They are such an easy read and the chapters aren’t that long. Very easy to get pulled into the story and feel like you’re right there with the characters. I’ve ordered the rest of the series and can’t wait to read them.

A Wonderful Book

This book is so good. I love Janette Oke and this is one of her best books. I got so attached to the characters and the story warms my heart.

Just as stated!

The book was in excellent condition and arrived promptly! Thank you! Love Comes Softly (Love Comes Softly Series #1)

The Adult Little House

I read 3 books by Janette Oke over the last 2 weeks. They are really easy, escape literature. If you liked Little House On the Prairie when you were growing up these are the adult versions. I discovered them via the movies. I really like to read the book before I see the movie and when I saw an advertisement about these movies I felt I should read the books. I have enjoyed them quite a bit. The chapters are short so I can get one in on breaks between my work around the house. It starts with Love Comes Softly where you meet Marty and Clem and look at how hard life on the frontier really must have been. Marty marries Clem out of desperation but will anything come of this marriage or will she be heading back east soon? These are Christian Literature. One of the things I enjoyed the most about them is that they really seem to reflect how hard life was then. The work was endless and the tools were hard to come by. These people really did have to do for themselves and make do the best they could.

"loved it"

I had read all the love come softly books. I first saw the movie from the hallmark channel, and decide to read the book. I really don't care for reading, but these books were easy to read and enjoyable. I enjoyed it better then the movie. I was worried that it wouldnt be as good, but it was. The movie was good, but the books are better. I was reading the book in less then two days. I would recomend this book to anyone. Its just the start to the rest of there journey.

Love Comes Softly 1-6

These books are great! I have read 6 out of this series and hope to start book 7 this weekend. Book 5 had me crying my eyes out when Ellie helped Nandry come to terms with Clarks leg. The way the Davis family looks to God for help in everyday living not just in crisis is very cool. I myself am somewhat like how Marty was when she first met Clark. Just seeing how they grow spiritually through the years and can always see something good no matter what. I wish I was that forgiving and understanding. These books have made me look at my own life and relize I have alot of spiritual growing to do and it also let me go into a world that the values and love of a family can get you through almost anything. I wish our fast paced society would stop and look at simple things as the Davis's did. I tell everyone I know that reads to pick up this series, it will always be a lifetime favorite of mine. Must have in your collection.
