Helpful Score: 3
This is one of my all time favorite books! I highly recommend this for anyone who is looking for a "great escape." Barbara Kingsolver is one of the best and most descriptive writer I have ever had the pleasure to read. You will literally get lost in this book. It is beautiful.
After reading this one, I looked for others by this author and found The Poisonwood Bible. I enjoyed that one just as much, and maybe even more. It spans approximately 50 years in the lives of a family, who find themselves trying to survive in South Africa where the father has been sent as a minister. It is an incredible and emotional story that stayed with me for weeks afterwards. The story also made me rethink my values and views. If you like to read and you like to be challenged mentally, you will not be disappointed reading Barbara Kingsolver.
