I wasn't going to read this book. I had already read the second and third in the series and I had a fair idea of how this one was going to go.
But then I remembered how much I liked the other two so I gave this one a shot, and I'm not sorry I did.
Elsie's life didn't quite go like she planned. She was going to make it big, and do "something" with her life. Instead, she married a farmer and stayed in a small town. But she has bigger plans for her daughter - plans to see her break away like Elsie was never able to do.
But Elsie's daughter has her own plans, including entering her mom in a "Proverbs 31 Woman" pageant. Through the pageant process, and through relationships with women around her, Elsie starts to see her life - and God - in a new way.
As I said, I was glad I went ahead and read this. I prefer the second and third books to this one - I liked their protagonists better - but the whole series was very good. I am strongly thinking about buying the whole set so I can read them whenever I want to spend a few hours in Pritchett, Wisconsin again.
