A review by _sleslie
The 19th Wife by David Ebershoff

5.0

I absolutely LOVED this book. I'm not an English major or professional book reviewer, so don't expect anything fancy from me. What I loved was how the two different, yet similar, stories avoided each other until the last couple of chapters of the book. By that point I was so anxious to see what was going to happen! I love all the different themes in this book. Polygamy is the obvious one, then homosexuality, women's rights... so many heated topics in one place. This book was an adventure for me and an eye opener to the world of polygamists.
