Book Reviews of Parable of the Talents
Book Review: 4 and a half stars-ingenous!
Summary: 4 Stars
the only problem that I had with this book is that it started slow. I guess i was still working with the speed that the previous entry, "parable of the sower" had left off at. All and all, it is beautiful.
As with the last book, I was impressed with Butler's detail(the religon that Lauren created, the city that was built, the characters' beliefs). There was no disconnect between me and the characters that I was reading about, or the story. The struggle that lauren had endured to keep close to her faith was real. I rose and fell with her triumphs and loses.
A promising writer must put this selection in their studies.
