I love parables, so I was not surprised that I loved this book. It was an easy read that was simple, yet so profound in many ways. I realize yet again, that truth is simple! I want to read it aloud to my children. :)
I always wondered what it would be like to meet someone with my exact name, and maybe I have and it was anti-climatic, but it sounds cool, and that is what happens in this book, I love the part and location when they meet, I love anything and everything by John Green. I can't wait for his new book.
A wonderful retelling of a very old story. I love anything historical so I would have read it anyway, but I knew the author was doing a great job when I felt the suspense even though I know how the story ends. The author also does a splendid job of adding many details and facts about the time period that the Bible leaves out, which makes it all the more interesting. When reading the Bible story you just take it for granted that she is selected for the Kings Harem, but in the book you get a sense of the fright a girl has on going in there and learn what the consequences are of not being the final selection, something I never considered before.
