Book Review: Breath of Angel

Breath of Angel was an interesting book. It's story line is unique; however, I was not completely taken away with it. The story line is very frustrating. If the reader is the type of person that looks for an allegory in a book like this, I would not recommend this book. It was almost impossible to find a correlation between this book and the Bible. Towards the end of the book I did begin to like it in the sense that I couldn't put it down. Henley makes her characters come to life and the reader becomes enraptured in their experiences. If the reader is looking for allegorical references in this book, I would not recommend them read it. However, if the reader is looking for a good, entertaining, page-turning read, then this is the book for them. I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing for this review.

Book Review: Bad Girls of the Bible

Bad Girls of the Bible explores the lives of ten biblical women. These women are not the good girls that we hear about in Sunday School, but rather they are the bad girls. Whether they were bad from the beginning; good and then turned bad at the end; or bad then turned good at the end, they are included. Liz Higgs tells us the story of these women in a way that keeps the reader interested and entertained. She also helps us see what we can learn from the lives of these women.

My favorite character in the book and, consequently, the one I most relate to is The Sinful Women. I would definitely recommend this book. I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
