The three books in the the Amish Greenhouse Mystery series have centered around the King family, and we've watched them endure overwhelming tragedy, numbing grief, and repeated threats to their livelihood。 Now, two years after the tragic accident that claimed three members of their family, it appears that a brighter future is ahead。 Finally, after being the glue that has held all of them together, the matriarch, Belinda King, is being courted by two men。 Can her teenage son accept another man in their lives? Will Belinda be able to love again, after losing the love of her life? Brunstetter fully understands the Amish way of life, and her introduction of mystery and suspense adds a pleasing element to her writing。 The Robin's Greeting reveals the identity of the person responsible for vandalizing the King's greenhouse over the past two years, and I was totally surprised! I was also amazed to learn that there was a connection between the King family and the English neighbor who had always been so antagonistic toward them。 The Robin's Greeting is the perfect way to wrap up the Amish Greenhouse Mystery series, and I recommend it to all who enjoy reading about family, faith, and the Amish way of life。 I received a copy of this book from the author。 There was no obligation for a positive review。 These are my own thoughts and opinions。 。。。more

A Great Mystery。The Robin’s Greeting by Wanda E。 Brunstetter is the 3rd and final book in the series。 So sad it has to end。 I couldn’t put the book down because I had to know who has been vandalizing Belinda King’s Greenhouse and property。 I thought I knew who the culprit was but turns out I was wrong。 Didn’t have a clue it was who it was! Wow! The author has written a great mystery in the whole series。 I absolutely recommend anyone to read the series。

This is the delightful third and final installment in Brunstetter's Amish Greenhouse Mystery series。 Belinda is the widowed matriarch of the story, and she has two suitors after her--Monroe Esh and Herschel Fisher。 Monroe has his good qualities, but he's also quite full of himself and pushy。 Herschel is a quiet, kind, older man。 Which suitor will Belinda choose, or will she remain single?

The Robin's Greeting by Wanda Brunstetter is book three in The Amish Greenhouse Mystery Series。 After the death of three members of their family, Belinda and her children have tried to cope with all the new responsibilities and running the family greenhouse。 Belinda is grateful to her children for their support but wishes she could find out who is behind all the vandalism that has taken place at their home and business。 She also has two suitors vying for her attention and isn't sure how to react The Robin's Greeting by Wanda Brunstetter is book three in The Amish Greenhouse Mystery Series。 After the death of three members of their family, Belinda and her children have tried to cope with all the new responsibilities and running the family greenhouse。 Belinda is grateful to her children for their support but wishes she could find out who is behind all the vandalism that has taken place at their home and business。 She also has two suitors vying for her attention and isn't sure how to react to them。 Her youngest son, Henry, is not pleased with either one, not wanting someone to try and replace his father。 I found this to be a satisfying conclusion to the mystery and the books。 I was surprised when I found out who was doing the damage to them and threatening them。 I also enjoyed how several loose ends were tied up。 Brunstetter has proven, yet again, why she is a top author in the Amish fiction world。 Thanks to #NetGalley for the chance to read and review this book。 All opinions are my own。 #all_the_pages 。。。more

I wonder if you have ever read an Amish story in which it seemed someone was always watching someone else。 I am not referring to simply noticing what someone else is doing but watching them with binoculars。 The King family have noticed the neighbor lady watching them at times。 With acts of vandalism on their property and threats regarding their greenhouse, the youngest son does some watching of his own。 He enjoys watching birds but finds his binoculars to be handy in trying to figure out who is I wonder if you have ever read an Amish story in which it seemed someone was always watching someone else。 I am not referring to simply noticing what someone else is doing but watching them with binoculars。 The King family have noticed the neighbor lady watching them at times。 With acts of vandalism on their property and threats regarding their greenhouse, the youngest son does some watching of his own。 He enjoys watching birds but finds his binoculars to be handy in trying to figure out who is behind the things that are going on。 I enjoyed the close-knit working relationship that Belinda and her two daughters and son have as they seek to move forward after the deaths of three family members two years prior。 I like the way the story spans about a sixteen-month time period with a lot of love, faith, conflict, and surprises that hold the attention。 The story shares several life lessons that are valuable to both Amish and English alike。 And the reader never knows what kind of bird will appear next。 They are not all robins。 。。。more

Great book to finish the series。 I would suggest reading the first two books, The Crow's Call and The Mockingbird's Song, to get the full story。 Though I was suspicious in the beginning about this being classified as mystery, I couldn't figure out who was vandalizing the King's property and was surprised when it was reveled。 Keep up the good work, Wanda!Thank you to Barbour Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC, which was received in exchange for an honest review。 All opinions are my own。 Great book to finish the series。 I would suggest reading the first two books, The Crow's Call and The Mockingbird's Song, to get the full story。 Though I was suspicious in the beginning about this being classified as mystery, I couldn't figure out who was vandalizing the King's property and was surprised when it was reveled。 Keep up the good work, Wanda!Thank you to Barbour Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC, which was received in exchange for an honest review。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more

This is the third book in the Amish Greenhouse Mystery series。 I really enjoyed this book along with the others in the series。 It held my attention from beginning to end。 I found myself reading faster to see what was going to happen next。 I must say I was shocked at who was doing it all。 I highly recommend this series to others。 You are going to love it。

The Amish Greenhouse trilogy was exciting。 My suggestion is to read the three books in succession as you won't want to wait to find out the mysterious troublemaker。 Needless to say, I was shocked when it was revealed in The Robin's Greeting。 The series takes place roughly over a two-year time period。 You follow the King family as they work through their grief after losing several loved ones in a single accident。 You will need plenty of tissues and be prepared to stay up late with each book。The R The Amish Greenhouse trilogy was exciting。 My suggestion is to read the three books in succession as you won't want to wait to find out the mysterious troublemaker。 Needless to say, I was shocked when it was revealed in The Robin's Greeting。 The series takes place roughly over a two-year time period。 You follow the King family as they work through their grief after losing several loved ones in a single accident。 You will need plenty of tissues and be prepared to stay up late with each book。The Robin's Greeting ties every loose end up and you are left with hope and love。 If you are experiencing grief as I am this series is perfect。 You realize your feelings are normal and happy days will come again。 It just takes time。 I received a complimentary copy from the publisher, Barbour Publishing, Inc。, through Netgalley。 All opinions expressed in the above review are entirely my own。 。。。more

The third and final book in Wanda Brunstetter's Amish Greenhouse Mystery series, The Robin's Greeting finally wraps up the mystery that began in the first book。 What a rollercoaster!

With so many obstacles in The third and final book in Wanda Brunstetter's Amish Greenhouse Mystery series, The Robin's Greeting finally wraps up the mystery that began in the first book。 What a rollercoaster! Two years after the tragic accident that resulted in the deaths of her husband, son, and son-in-law, Belinda King is finally starting to wonder if she may get a second chance at love。 But how will she choose between her long-ago boyfriend, Monroe Esh, and her newer friend, Herschel Fisher? With so many obstacles in the way, is it even worth it? Or can she find peace and contentment in being a grandparent and single parenting her grown children as well as her teenaged son, Henry? I really appreciated the growth that happened with several of the characters as the story progressed。 Both Virginia and Henry learned some valuable lessons as the pages went by。 There is one person who I quite disliked and whose behaviour didn't change, but it all works out in the end。 I enjoyed watching both Sylvia and Dennis' and Amy and Jared's relationships continue to progress。 I've been dying to find out who was behind the threats and vandalism towards the King's greenhouse since the first novel, and I have to say, I did not see this series ending the way it did! I often tend to figure out who-dun-it partway through a book or series, but this one kept me guessing the entire time。 As if that wasn't enough of a mystery, the shocking twist near the end really threw me for a loop。 I didn't see that one coming, at all!The Robin's Greeting is an enjoyable novel filled with suspense, romance, and faith。 Regardless of what comes her way, Belinda never fails to trust that God has a plan for her and for her family。 If you enjoy Brunstetter's book or just Amish fiction in general, you won't want to miss this book。 *I received a complimentary copy of The Robin's Greeting through the publisher and NetGalley。 All thoughts and opinions are my own。 My positive review is not required。 。。。more

I had been waiting for this book, and was so happy when it came out。 More vandalism and things were getting out of hand。 Monroe is still pushing himself in Belindas face, but Herschel is in the picture now。 Virginia has still been complaining about her neighbours。 Relationships grow and Henry isn’t pleased with either man being interested in his mom。 We get to find out who was doing all the vandalism, and I am sure you will be surprised like I was。

Wanda wrote the perfect ending that answers the questions found in the previous books in this series The Crows Call and The Mockingbirds Song。 The king family has struggled since the tragic death of 2 family members。 Personally as well as the family business due to threatening messages and damage done around the property。 Brenda’s two suitors both totally different from each other。 And how the family endures。 So not to spoil and say too much I will end saying I totally enjoyed this book as well Wanda wrote the perfect ending that answers the questions found in the previous books in this series The Crows Call and The Mockingbirds Song。 The king family has struggled since the tragic death of 2 family members。 Personally as well as the family business due to threatening messages and damage done around the property。 Brenda’s two suitors both totally different from each other。 And how the family endures。 So not to spoil and say too much I will end saying I totally enjoyed this book as well as the series。 You could read this book alone but I recommend reading the whole series。 I think you will enjoy it 。。。more
