The blurb is quite misleading bit this was a really interesting novel that challenged not just religiosity but also gender.

I NEVER REVIEWED THIS??? My favorite book???? And I’ve never reviewed it?????
This is my favorite book and has been since I read it. My first LG. My discipleship began here. This was required reading for a class about medieval and early modern women and this book blew. Me. Away. It is graphic and lyrical and deeply profound and tactile (AND SEXY)!!! Reading this book is like climbing into a deep warm nest and eating stew and thinking about your mom. Talks about the beauty of religion in a way that is fresh and clean and SO PROFOUND. I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH. 
This is my go-to recommendation for people whom I love. Groffites should begin their journey here. I can’t say enough lovely things about this book. 
Also, this isn’t the ed. i have I don’t think — I’ve lost the dust jacket.
