Search - The Red Tent

This was a very memorable book, I loved it. Interesting subject matter. It tells about some of the women in the Bible from their point of view. Fiction, not a Bible companion.

This book was incredibly good. Although fiction, it takes you into the life of Dinah and fills in the big chinks you find in the Bible when it comes to the stories about women. It is an adventure, a romance and a life journey. I would highly recommend reading this book.

This book is well written, but is in no way Biblically accurate. Again, a good book, just don't trust it as truth.

I'm one of a minority here but I failed to get past 1/4 of the book. I really wanted to like it but it lacked enough emotion for me to continue on. I felt the writing was poor and disjointed. Like another reviewer said, it was every other sentence of "so and so begat so and so" as well as birth after birth with very little emotion. The Red Tent had a great deal of promise but sadly failed to pull me in enough to keep going.

Loved this book! Although the characters are from the bible it needs to be read as fiction. Interesting insight into what it must have been like to be a woman in bible times.
