Summary:
Jorgan, Thor and Haakon are the owners of Nogaard farm on Blackbird Mountain in Virgina. What these 3 men did not know was their great aunt Dorthe set in motion to find a wife suitable for either Thor or Haakon because Jorgan was already in the works of getting married. Before their great aunt could see her handy work in action she passed away. Some months later Aven appeared at the Nogaard farm with no knowledge Dorthe had passed. Did Dorthe succedd in the love matching game or did she tear these brothers apart?
What I thought:
I found this book to be a quick read and educational. At times this book had me crying, laughing, and angry. Ms. Bischof did a great job with educating those that didn’t understand or know that speaking in sign language was different than speaking with a voice. Not just because of the actual hand gestures but the meaning behind them and the way the form half sentences rather than full. I was taught sign language at a young age and explaining to other people why the sentences didn’t seem complete were tiring but it was worth learning the langauge. Will love hurt or strengthing this family? Is there going to be a new generation? Does this young lady that shows up at the farm scare easliy? This book is a must read and I am hoping that Ms. Bischof writes another book around the Nogaard.
