About this listen

Leaving Stoney Ridge feels unbearable—but how can she stay?

Impulsive Lydie Stoltzfus has always felt like a disappointment—a square peg in a round hole in her quiet Amish community. Leaving her family and church seems like her best move, even though it would mean leaving Nathan Yoder behind.

Nathan claims he’s in love with her, but she knows she’s not good enough for him.

And if she is ever in doubt, Nathan’s father reminds her frequently.

Knowing Lydie is “between” jobs again, the local doctor asks her to fill in at the front desk for a few months. This gives Lydie time to figure out how she’s going to say goodbye to Nathan—and it gives Dok ample time to recognize the symptoms of a disorder rare among the Amish. She offers Lydie treatment that has the potential to change her life.

But will it be enough to make her stay? Or has help come too late?

Outstanding sensitivity to ADHD personalities!

I absolutely love how Suzanne Woods Fisher gets into the heart of sensitive issues. Her characters are so real! Her portrayal of their situations enables the reader to gain insight and a new measure of understanding. Yet her humor is wound through the tale in an endearing way! I just love this book about an Amish family that struggles generationally with ADHD, though it's not previously diagnosed. A great harvest read!

Great!!

This is a very endearing story about a very important subject matter. I loved the author’s approach. The narrator is one of my favorites. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a clean wholesome book. So hard to find clean books in audible.

Delightful

Found Liddy to be delightful! I have ADHD, I am 63 years old, and found Liddy so relatable. Nathan is such a sweetheart. Very enjoyable book.

The message about ADHD!! So informative! It also helped me understand plain people more…

Nothing at all. It held my attention and didn’t want to stop listening. I loved the story.

My Favorite Author!

This story is one of the most beautiful ever! Suzanne Woods Fisher has brought light to an important subject, ADHD. She explains how it affects those with it and those who live with these individuals. What a beautiful story of hope and love, beautifully told! All of her stories are told with unexpected twists and turns. She is my favorite author. If you love the Amish and love stories you won’t be disappointed.
