The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
4.0

It took me a while to really get into this book. Once I did, however, I was greatly impressed. Kingsolver is a masterful writer and gifted with words. She did a great job of giving each character in this book their own individual voice. I really liked that she allowed us to stay with these characters for three decades. It really gave the story more depth and resonance. I knew absolutely nothing about the Congo before I read this so appreciated learning about it. It took me about 300 pages to really get into this book but once I did, I was hooked.
