so-soThis is going to be a long one. Sorry.
This is between a pick and a so-so for me. Ultimately, this is a really good story that is ruined by a cliche sermon tossed in randomly that disrupts the flow. It genuinely feels like that whole ridiculousness was added in later for some ridiculous reason.
The Ari and Rivka at the beginning of the book are a wonderful young couple who have their differences, but they‘re relatively healthy. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
It‘s like someone went in and added this absolute rubbish line. I‘m almost not convinced Ingermanson wrote this sentence - at least not the last word. The rest of the book is so well written. This one sentences is just starkly different.

Arrogant SOB has lost his damn mind!!! Damian is the biggest idiot. Can I beat him up?! If he keeps Rivka and Ari apart, he better hope the ancient Romans crucify him, because I‘m going to make them look like they were playing. Butt face!!!

Ooooooh, the title has many connotations within the story; and there are clearly many questions we don‘t even know to ask, but we definitely need the answers.

The man of my dreams. A brain, but not full of himself. 🤣😂🤣

Just a few chapters in, but this is going very well. I‘m even rather enjoying the little bits of Hebrew mixed in. I think it‘s because I‘ve always had a fascination with the language. It was the first language I knew of that went right to left, and as a lefty that seemed very logical to me as a child.

I have very high hopes for this book. Partly, I‘m reading it because I want to see what has come out of Ingermanson‘s very methodical writing system. Partly, I‘m reading this book because it sounds really awesome and I think I might end up cheering for the guy who is quite possibly the bad guy. 🤷🏼♀️ As I said, I have very high hopes for this book. Here‘s hoping it survives.

I am still unconvinced that this line was written by Ingermanson. The rest of the book is well written from a 20-30-something‘s voice. This line is ridiculous and written from a teenager‘s voice. Just call him a male chauvinist pig and move on. This line is ridiculous and pulls the reader completely out of the story to try and figure out what just happened. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 6y
