![]() ![]() This was my first time reading this author, but it will certainly not be my last. To be fair though, this was set in 14th century England, a time when religion was closely interrelated with one's lifestyle and it was more of a way of life. Transitions are bad too and there are too many POV changes in a chapter. Writing is a bit too young, and there is hardly any build up in some scenes. Women deserve to be loved and protected and men deserve to be cooked for and have their wants and needs addressed. If you're beautiful and kind, you NEED to get married or your looks will have been for naught. It got old quickly and annoying.Īlso, this book pretty much kept on emphasizing the fact that marriage is the most natural thing and that it's the most obvious thing to do. I'm a spiritual person, and while I don't take the Bible literally word for word, I do appreciate the lessons we can impart from it, but come on, man! There's a fine line between good and unreasonable. etc.Įvery time the MC would read the Bible for her Lord, we'd get paragraphs and pages explaining parables and the lessons learnt, with the occasional "God is SOOO good!" ![]() ![]() did this book talk about Jesus and God a lot and how they're the reasons good things come, how they're the ones blessing every good thing that happens, how they're the ones that smite the bad guys and how they're the ones curing diseases etc. I mean, I'm Catholic and I like values and insights inspired from the Bible but holy. This was the preachiest thing I've ever read. ![]()
