Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill by Jennifer Beckstrand

4.0

Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill by Jennifer Beckstrand is the twelfth book in The Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill series. While Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill can be read on its own, I do recommend reading every delightful book in the series. The story is well-written with developed characters. The dialogue is realistic and entertaining. I just love Anna and Felty Helmuth. They are quite a pair. I enjoyed Anna’s latest antics. Anna is a good matchmaker (Anna and Felty have a string of successes). I love that Anna uses her knitted and crocheted items to help with the matchmaking (she especially believes that brightly colored potholders are helpful). I laughed often while reading Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill. I like the talk that Felty had with Omi and Ruth about faith and God. I will admit that I was not a fan of Ruth. Her attitude and behavior, though, were necessary for the story. We get to see the characters grow in character and in faith. Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill is a story about forgiveness, family, choices, love, grace, and faith. I am glad that Anna and Felty have plenty of grandchildren to “help” find a match. I would not want to eat Anna’s food (I shudder at the thought), but I would love to be included among Anna and Felty’s family. Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill is a heartwarming Amish tale with a flirty twin, a silent sister, a switch gone amiss, a plethora of potholders, gregarious grandparents, merry matchmaking, and a hopeful future.
