The Lopsided Christmas Cake by Wanda E. Brunstetter and Jean Brunstetter. Ohio:Shiloh Run Press, 2015. 203 pages. *****
Twin sisters, Elma and Thelma Hochstetler inherit
their grandparent's house and general store. Living together with their parents
for their thirty-two years and unmarried, the sisters decide to become
independent, move from Sullivan, Illinois to Topeka, Indiana and continue their
grandparent's business. While participating in a charity bake-off they catch
the eye of bachelor friends, Joseph Beechy and Delbert Gingerich. The bake off
is a disaster and the twins handle it with humor and poise. Will a lopsided
Grandma's Christmas cake bring welcome changes to the Hochstetler twin’s social
life or should they sell the house and move home with their parents?
Brunstetter never disappoints, reading her books is
like welcoming a best friend into your home. You know that it will be a
wonderful, calming, fun experience and you will feel better after you are
finished reading it. You will instantly want more and cannot wait until she publishes
the next one. Wanda and her daughter-in-law collaborated on this book and I am
sure there will be many more in their future.
I received a copy of this book from Barbour
Publishing to review.
