Esther the Queen by H.B. Moore, Heather B. Moore

5.0

---

I loved this book. Heather's writing is practically perfect in every way (yes, like Mary Poppins). Heather's telling of Esther's beauty, and kindness was described well. I looked forward to every page she was in. Even though he freaked me out, Haman was well written too. He was downright evil. Ahasuerus surprised me. I didn't except to like him as much as I did. He had a definite presence that I enjoyed. I loved his and Esther's relationship and thought it was sweet when they were first getting to know each other. From their first meeting at the well, to the chapter where she is brought to him from the harem, I loved it all. Esther had a way of brightening any situation. When she was first made queen, she would walk around the castle, getting to know everyone and trying to make all around her better. I was happy when she went to the harem to visit Hegai, Nan, and Sarah. She made everyone around her feel important.
