A Season on the Wind // Book Review

About the Book:
Ben Zook had only two loves in his life: books and birds. In a stroke of good fortune, he'd stumbled onto a way to cobble together those two loves into a career, writing books about rare birds. He was as free as a bird--until a chase for a rare White-winged Tern takes him to the one place on earth he planned to never return: his Amish home in Stoney Ridge.
Desperate for photographs of the elusive tern, Ben hires a local field guide, Micah Weaver, and boards at Micah's farm, planning to "bag the bird" and leave Stoney Ridge before anyone recognizes him. But he neglected to plan for Micah's sister, Penny.
One long-ago summer, Penny had introduced Ben to birding, even sharing with him a hidden eagle aerie. That was when she knew true love. She'd always hoped he would come back to Stoney Ridge. Back to his Amish roots. Back to her. The only problem? Ben has absolutely no memory of Penny.

My Review:
It’s been awhile since I’ve read a book by Susan Woods Fisher but I’ve enjoyed the books I read by her so I was excited to read her newest release. A Season on the Wind was a good book but not a favorite. I had never read a book with characters who loved birds so much, so that was an interesting aspect to the story. There were lots of different facts about birds so if you find that fascinating you should give this one a try!
I thought Penny was a good main character and so was Ben. 
Natalie and Micah’s point of views were interesting to read about but they weren’t my favorite characters.
I think it’s fun that this book, like so many others by Suzanne Woods Fisher, is set in the town of Stoney Ridge so it’s fun to be able to see characters from her previous books.
Overall I thought this book was an enjoyable read. 

**Thank you Revell for the book in exchange for my honest review
