Adoring Addie by Leslie Gould
3.0
Addies parents seemed to want her to marry Phillip and thought they’d be a good match I’m sure they wanted what they thought was best. Most important though is does Addie love him and want to marry him?
Addie has older brothers but it seems like she takes on a role of doing most things around the house as her mother seems depressed. Addie seems to have little time for her friends and other things outside of going to church and household chores. Though Addie's aunt lives with them and also helped with the chores while her mum seems to always be writing lists and supervising people.
Johnathan came into the community and started paying attention to her Addie who liked him from the start because he is caring. But as he was a Moiser she was told to stay away form him. There was bitterness between the Cramers and Mosiers for as long as anyone remembered that no one would talk about and continued until Adalaide Cramer and Jonathan Mosier became friends and then wanted to court. The bitterness seems a bit childish that it would keep the two apart but I was glad when they decided to work through things.
I loved this story and felt the ending finished all too soon, it was a good read and I enjoyed hearing about Addie and her family. It is difficult when family members struggle with depression. I loved what a good loyal friend Addie was to Hannah.
