Nancy: Starts a little slow, but picks up. Hard to put down. Would be a great book for use in schools to bring up the history of our Nation. Inspires understanding of the drive of immigrants to the west and its impact on the various tribes.
Would also be a great book club read and discussion.

Paula Conner: Amazing story, beautifully written

Amazon Customer: The book's title "Where the Lost Wander" sounds a bit sappy, best suited to a romance novel, not a powerhouse work of historical fiction, which this book is. Having lived in both Central Oregon at the terminus of the Oregon Trail and Central Wyoming where the Trail's ruts are still visible today, I can attest to the story's authenticity. Expertly researched, the fictional story that unfolds within is believable and compelling, appropriately emphasizing hardship while at the same time revealing the sense of community emerging among the wagons on any particular wagon train. Harmon's character development is spot-on, creating a deeply moving love story against the backdrop of daily tension and edginess that accompanies death, fear, uncertainty, and the ever-present suspicion of the Native American tribes inhabiting the west at the time, often warring amongst themselves. A museum in Bend, Oregon displays galleries full of Oregon Trail artifacts featuring original journals from the pioneers' journeys. One excerpt: "I have suffered more today than all the suffering combined." Where the Lost Wander likely identifies what that suffering likely was. Some of the best historical fiction I've...

Emdee: I loved this book. I couldn't wait to get back to it each day. This is the second Amy Harmon book I have read and her writing is full of wonderful detail, keeping me spellbound. I can't wait to read another book by this very talented author.

Venise: C'était merveilleux, magnifique et on ne peut plus émouvant. John Lowry et Naomi m'ont ébranlée, leur histoire et la plume de l'auteure m'a une fois de plus chamboulée... C'était une épopée tellement belle, des personnages réels nous accompagnant...Je vous invite vraiment à lire la note de l'auteure une fois que vous aurez fini l'histoire. Vraiment, c'était si réel, si pur, passionnant. Une si belle histoire d'amour et je les aime comme s'ils étaient réels et ils le sont, cette histoire était tellement immersive, simple et complexe aussi. Parfaite.

Avishay ChAvishay Ch: Sometimes, I have no words to describe a book I loved so much. And after finishing this book, I couldn’t describe it.This book is in his own class, and has his own place in my heart. In addition, the book entered the list of the best books I read this year.
For me, reading a book "twice" is like I'll be abroad right now, but, it happens to me once in while... The last book that made me want to read it twice was four months ago. What does it mean? It's hard for me to disconnect from this book because it's so good that it left a mark on my heart. It’s hard for me to move on to the next book, and I want to start it again as soon as I'm done because I don't want to leave it. And I'm even happier that this happened to me with the author I love the most and admire her, her writing and her courage to write these books.

Our journey begins in 1853 in the US.
Naomi has never seen herself become a widow at the age of 20. The family embraces and supports her. Especially her mom. She sees her mother as a role model and admire her, She sees her as a smart, great woman, a figure to live by.

MJLovestoRead: Where the Lost Wander is powerful in the most subtle of ways. Amy Harmon takes us on a journey like no other and one I will admit I was hesitant to take. But with a most intense prologue, my interest was piqued in a way I didn't expect. And before I knew it, I was deep into Harmon's exquisite writing and just like Naomi Way and her beloved family and their brutal trek west, I wasn't turning back.

Harmon in my opinion, couldn't have written a more timely piece. With this worldwide pandemic strangling our very livelihoods, I almost felt a kindredship towards these weary travelers and their new normal. Even with a pretty decent-sized wagon train, leaving behind all that they knew in Missouri for a new life in California, there were still times of loneliness, monotony and extreme doubt that this was still the right thing to do. The May family is strong, seemingly resilient and full of faith that everything will turn out all right. I couldn't help but feel their inner thoughts and feelings in much the same way I do in this new world of ours, 2020 reflecting some of what they were experiencing in the 1850's.

The underlying slow burn romance between Naomi May and one John...
