Love’s Pursuit is the second book I have read by Siri Mitchell and I guarantee it will not be the last. Her ability as a writer is excellent. Her ability as a writer is excellent. Not only do her books deal with the real struggles and hopes of people, but her characters are incredibly captivating. My first novel by Siri Mitchell and first set in Puritan New England and I was eventually drawn in to the story and the lives of the settlers. At first the switch of narrator is somewhat confusing but it is worthwhile persevering. LOVE’S PURSUIT Books by Siri Mitchell _____ A Constant Heart Love’s Pursuit Love’s Pursuit Copyright © Siri L.
