annarella 's review for:

The Book of Longings by Sue Monk Kidd
4.0

I think it's a very spiritual book, not religious or simply historical but spiritual as it talks to your spirit and makes you reflect on what you're reading.
It's the first book I read by this author and I fell in love with the style of writing.
Ana is a complex and interesting character, a bit too modern, but complex and well thought.
I loved how the author describes her relationship with Jesus who is seen as a man.
This is a poignant and brilliant story that made me sad when it ended.
I strongly recommend it.
Many thanks to the publisher for this ARC, all opinions are mine
