#IfYouLeaveMeCanIComeToo #MarchIntoOz This was one of the first books I ever reviewed for NetGalley. It was a Christian Woman‘s fictionalization of the biblical story of Ruth and Naomi. As a Jewish reader, I enjoyed the author‘s take on this biblical narrative. It was a bit sappy and overly romanticized but still a pleasant read. I‘ve always admired the words of Ruth to her mother in law “Where you go, I will go & where you stay I will stay”
