Book Reviews of Woman Redeemed
Book Review: A wonderful Novel - even for the non-religious
Summary: 5 Stars
When I first bought this book I was a bit skeptical, but I was pleasantly surprised!
The story is just wonderful. Since I'm not religious at all I'm sure lots of the things that happen in Mary's life are from the bible but I'm not familiar with them so for me it was just a good story. I knew I liked it when it took me less than a week to read it.
After talking with some of my friends a bit about it (and yes I'm admitting my ignorance here) I didn't know that Mary is usually portrayed as a whore, this book doesn't have that take on her at all. She does do some not so lady like things and has a few sins along the way but nothing to give her that negative of an image.
My final thought on this book was while reading it and after reading it I felt very peaceful. It made me think about accepting some things in my life that I was grumpy about and look at things a bit differently. I'm guessing religious people may get this feeling each week when they go to Church but it was a new experience for me!
I will be curious to read reviews from more religious people than me.
I highly recommend it!!
