Unveiled: Tamar by Francine Rivers
4.0

This is the story of Tamar, the Canaanite women Judah had chosen to be the wife of one of his sons. Judah chose Tamar for his son Er. He was hoping that having a wife would calm down his wayward son. When Er unexpectedly dies, Tamar is given to the next oldest son. That relationship also ends in tragedy. Judah sends Tamar away in shame refusing to give her to his remaining son. She waits a very long time before she takes matters into her own hands.

I love these kinds of stories. Makes the characters in the bible seem more real. It was a quick read and Tamar came alive on the page. I remember reading about her and wondered about her and what she went through. Granted this is a fictional representation, but very good nonetheless.
