itsmelitsa 's review for:

The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
5.0
dark emotional informative reflective sad medium-paced
I loved how this book was written. For the author to sit down and cover the events of 35 years - both personal and historical - from the perspectives of 5 different female narrators, aging some of them from childhood to middle aged adulthood, was just phenomenal. 

I also learned so much about the history of the Democratic Republic of Congo, and was inspired to dig deeper and learn more. I appreciated the attention given to the history and the important political figures, and the way the truth was woven into the stories of the 5 narrators.
