5.0
I am currently re-reading this one. I highly recommend it!
The Gilded Chamber: A Novel of Queen Esther by Rebecca Kohn
3.0
I read the biblical book of Esther prior to reading this book. I'm a bit confused as to why this book is in the bible. I can only imagine that it's there because a King set forth the cannons and he wanted this in there to show the power of a King.
I'm curious to see this author's take on Esther's role.
Well, she did a very good job of sticking to the biblical story.
This book was recommened for people who enjoyed the Red Tent. I strongly disagree with that.
While this book was an easy read - I don't feel it had any effect on my emotions. While I read The Red Tent I cried and my heart and soul ached.
This was just a pleasant read that didn't get me very involved in the characters.

Perfecting Kate by Tamara Leigh

While this book started out strong - the typical make a so so girl a stunner - it went on a little to long.
I was bored with this book about 100 pages before it ended. But I finished it, which says something.

I enjoyed the idea of this book - but for me it was not a smooth read. I had to force myself thru it.
