| Summary | "Samantha among the Brethren — Volume 3" by Marietta Holley is a humorous novel written during the early 20th century. This book is part of a series featuring the character of Samantha, who navigates the intricacies of life, family, and society, often with a comical touch. The overarching topic focuses on women's roles, relationships, and the societal expectations of the time, portraying the beloved character's various encounters and experiences in a light-hearted manner. In this installment, Samantha grapples with the challenges posed by her cousin Lodema's visit, as she showcases a blend of humor and frustration in her interactions. Amidst the family's turmoil, particularly surrounding Josiah's intentions to surprise Lodema with a mock diamond wedding celebration, Samantha becomes an unwilling mediator. The plot thickens with the arrival of other relatives and humorous societal commentary, culminating in a series of amusing events that highlight the absurdities of expectations placed on women and family dynamics. Ultimately, as Lodema's departure ensues under less-than-ideal circumstances, the narrative leaves readers reflecting on the complexities of relationships and the social mores of the time, all wrapped in Holley's characteristic wit.
