I did thoroughly enjoy this book, learning about a whole different culture and how cruel it can be to women, or anyone that dares to be a little different. I loved Jesus and Ana relationship but don’t think I would have been as forgiving as Ana when he left.  The place where people can go to live out a peaceful life sounded like pure bliss and I wish it was real.
