Book of the Week: The Icecutter's Daughter

You can tell by the title what kind of book I chose again this week- The Icecutter's Daughter, by Tracie Peterson, a woman I feel is a pretty good author. (This is, however, another Christian romance, so not exactly appreciated in the same way as Sara Gruen's At the Water's Edge.) I did enjoy this book though, and grabbed the next two books of the series to read over the next two weeks!

All of the characters in this book were either Svedish, ja, or German, and it was set in Minnesota in the late 1800s. I enjoyed all of the unique names that came about as a result of the setting! Rurik Jorgenson, Merrill Krause, Nils Olsson, and the like! Those were a lot of fun. The next book in the series is similar - The Miner's Daughter, or The Quarryman's Wife, or something like that.
