Negative Positive
Title: Quite disappointed!
Review: After reading the first 7 reviews on this book, I ran right out to Borders and bought it. I thought I would settle in for a great read over Thanksgiving weekend. This book is a disappiontment! It is tedious and boring. The writing style is simplistic, written at a 4th grade reading level.Sure, Jacob married Leah and Rachel. After that, the author made up this wife, that wife, and the next wife; all with strange names. They all bore children with mostly strange names. Next, they each worshipped household gods with strange names. Half of this story is an alphabet soup of names. If I was interested enough, I could keep everyone straight, but I am not.In my opinion, the author took a Bible story, plugged in some basic facts, and ran wild making up the rest.Too bad she didn't make it interesting while she was at it!
Is the review positive or negative?
