I think I'm a third of the way through this book, and it's just not holding my interest whatsoever. There's nothing about it that makes me want to pick it up, so I'm giving up.

I never really grew to care about the characters, and the story kind of dragged for me.

An unforgettable novel! Powerful and dangerous women. The feminine aspect of God. Mysticism, destiny, history.
