The Thorn

The characters' decisions seem deeply rooted in their beliefs—did the author draw from personal experiences or extensive research? I'm curious how faith shapes their daily lives.

I appreciated the character development, but I found myself wanting more action or conflict to keep the story engaging. Was that intentional to emphasize inner struggles?

The setting felt authentic and immersive. I'm wondering if the author spent time in Amish regions or drew from personal connections to craft this world.
