The Book of Longings by Sue Monk Kidd
4.0

I really enjoyed the way that Sue Monk Kidd writes. I was pulled in by her elegant style and the story around Ana. The way that Ana and Jesus come together made sense with who one would think Jesus would be like as a younger man. It was interesting to see how Jesus could have reacted as a husband. It gave him human qualities that are often overlooked. Ana’s journey is plagued with all the ways that women were treated back in that time and how she works to rise above those expectations. I found this story to be an interesting read
