SO BORING. I tried SO HARD to get into it cause it had so many good reviews. Plus it was kind of retelling the Jesus story in a way that christians would think is blasphemous, but it was absolutely terrible. So boring and overall uninteresting. I need a quicker plot.

personally, it means a lot to me to read such a beautiful story get to the heart of my spirituality without traditional restraints. and it’s women! women women women finally in the narrative telling their stories their way! honestly, I have been starved of reading about women in this kind of spiritual context and <b>what for</b>.
overall this just isn’t my type of story, and I couldn’t really connect to the main characters as much as I would’ve liked to have. but there’s a lot of heart in the story. it’s wonderful storytelling.
