The Memory Jar by Tricia Goyer

My Thoughts:

I'm always excited to get my hands on a book written by Tricia Goyer.  She's one of my favorite authors and never fails to deliver a heartfelt story that will stay with you long after the last page.  In The Memory Jar, she has created a masterpiece of friendship, memories, heartache, love and "fancy" cupcakes.:)  I found Sarah's memory jar absolutely charming as we discover through the course of the book what each trinket represents.  I particularly enjoyed getting to know Patty, Sarah's best friend, through flashbacks and daydreams.  Love is presented in a deeply caring way by getting to know someone and their dreams- not just by outward appearances.  Jathan is a dear!  Your heart almost aches with the way he cares for Sarah.  Getting lost in the woods and cooking in the kitchen have never been so romantic!

Book One in the Seven Brides for Seven Bachelors series

Every year, 30–40 young Amish men descend on the cozy little town of West Kootenai, Montana, arriving in the spring to live there for six months and receive ‘resident’ status for the hunting season in the fall. They arrive as bachelors, but go home with brides! Sarah Shelter has lived in West Kootenai for the last ten years and wonders if she will ever fall in love.

Since the tragic death of her best friend, she carries her memories in a jar along with the small items connected to them. For just as long, she’s also been carrying around her emotions instead of allowing them to penetrate deep into her heart. Now she’s met a kind and gentle man who may be able to break down the wall. But can Sarah risk her heart to finally achieve her dreams?
