The Courtship of Nellie Fisher is a six-book series by Beverly Lewis, published between 2007 and 2010. The series follows Nellie Fisher through a period of upheaval in her Amish community, where divisions over doctrine and practice affect her personal life and romantic prospects. The books trace Nellie’s story from The Parting through The Telling.
Lewis uses the courtship framework to explore larger questions about community, tradition, and what happens when the people around you disagree about fundamental beliefs. Nellie’s story is both a romance and a story about a young woman finding her own convictions during a time when her community is fracturing.
