A review by alyssa_max
The Book of Longings by Sue Monk Kidd

5.0

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. Like all good historical fiction, it prompted me to do significant additional research on the people and places in the novel. I was initially skeptical of how the author would portray Jesus as a human character, but found that she did so with nuance and believability.

Honestly, the least believable part of the whole book was the lifespan of Ana’s pet goat, Delilah!
