Mujeres de la Biblia: Un devocional de estudio para un ano sobre las mujeres de la Escritura
Ann Spangler, Jean E. Syswerda
DID NOT FINISH: 20%
DNF 02/28/2025. I think devotionals are just not for me. This one was lying around among my mom's books, and I have just not picked it up since. I just want to sit down and read it all at once and devotionals aren't really for that.
This book fell by the wayside years ago and I haven't gone back to it. I probably will eventually, but probably not anytime soon.
I thought I was eventually going to get back to this, but it's a dense read and it's been a few years. We're just going to DNF for now and see if we revisit it in the future.
I stopped reading this one and have not been reading romance as of late, so I think I'm going to call it quits for now. Maybe I shall return to this later, but definitely not any time soon. It was a good story while I was reading it, though.
Moderate: Sexual content
I started reading this when I had Kindle Unlimited and then just never went back to it. I have now mostly lost interest in going back. I have not been gravitating towards romance in general. It may be a while before I read romance at all, so maybe I will pick this up in the future. That, however, will not be any time soon.
Graphic: Sexual content
DNF. The romance was more focused on lust than anything else and was too fast pace for me to really get to know or like the characters.
Graphic: Sexual content
Moderate: Cursing
The male lead threatened the female lead with rape and that's not redeemable to me, so I'm out.
Graphic: Sexual harassment
I couldn't get past the fact that the male lead slept with the female lead's mother in the past. It was too weird for me. He's also too much of a jerk to make him redeemable for me, especially after finding that out. I don't think the female lead knows either, but it's weird anyway. It also seems that the mother was predatory towards him which makes it worse. I didn't stick around long enough to find out. If it's not something you think would bother you than go for it, but this was just not for me.
Graphic: Sexual content, Murder
The book's pacing is very slow and I got more than half way through and found it hard to understand the motivations behind the characters or why they would even like each other. There might have been something lost in translation given that this was not originally written in English. It's hard to tell.
I am reading a lot of other things I'm more interested in at the moment and I have lost interest in this book particularly. The concept of going back and forth between two characters that are 1000 years apart is intriguing, but it's just not something I want to read right now. I might come back to this in the future.
