Welcome to Litsy!

This was actually an easy choice for me. Honestly, this one stuck with me for days after I finished.

I greatly enjoyed the inclusion of The Thunder, Perfect Mind in this story. It seemed fitting and it worked beautifully. I appreciated the use of CE (current era) as opposed to AD. It makes sense for the story, but it is also in accordance with academic parlance and gives the book more weight, a more solid foundation. I liked the use of the Jewish months as opposed to our current months.

This was a beautiful and - no doubt - comforting sentiment. Sadly, it has not come to pass. For Ana, yes. After that, not only have all his acts of love been squandered, they have been outright defiled and continue to be so. The current climate of the USA is testament to this defilement.

I‘m sitting here, enjoying this book… and now some server problem is preventing me from continuing… mid conversation about how much of a “devil” her creepy old man betrothed is. EXCUSE ME, I NEED TO KNOW THIS NOW!!!

Went into this book rather cautiously. As a Christian I wasn‘t sure what to think about a book where Jesus had a wife. I had to tell myself over and over it‘s fiction, it‘s fiction. Some of it was hard to take as plausible , other parts Kidd nailed it! Anna being who she was meant society wasn‘t going to tell her what to do, and I appreciated that. Not romantic at all, but you end up really liking Jesus! #suemonkkid #thebookoflongings #botm
