good book! glad I chose this on a whim, well worth it. I have to say after seeing the other reviewer 1- this book is in the religious fiction category. 2- the scriptures read, are because one character mets another on Ellis Island, neither speak each others language but have bibles so communicate through them. Kind of ingenious, frustrated they can't talk, one remembers something similar to what they want to say, shows the chapter/verse so the other can find it in their language and vice-versa. After seeing that review I looked and was 6 hours in and hadn't heard one biblical verse. its not a lot or constant, but this is labeled Religious Fiction. Narrator was a little off, a 16yr old girl sings and her voice is way too mature with this narrator, it put me off lol

I loved this story because it carried me the experience of coming to America as an immigrant coming toEllis Island.

Being a Sweed with 2 sisters I was drawn to this story. I love the fairy princess and the encouraging ending because of the integrity of the girls!

A very good story with a happy ending ♥️

WAY too much scripture and preaching added to what would have otherwise been a very good story line. I found myself fast forwarding at least a half dozen times through bible quotations so I could get back to what I really bought the book for. I wanted an entertaining story not a Sunday sermon. I will have a bad taste in my mouth after being force fed religion disguised as a fictional best seller.
