Yes, it has been a very long time since I have posted and even today, this post is a bit different than usual. I received a free galley book, Isaiah's Daughter by Mesu Andrews, to review for a website.
So, here it goes....
Mesu Andrews is the queen of Biblical Christian Fiction. I have loved all her other books very much. In my opinion, this book did not rate as highly as all her other literary offerings. Ishma has been brought to live with the prophet, Isaiah. The book chronicles her childhood and growing up years. During the majority of the book, Ishma and Hezikiah (the crown prince of Judah) were children, slowly growing older as the book continued. Mesu did a fabulous job of creating a fictional story around the true Biblical passages. When they finally were old enough to marry, I just thought that the story skipped large passages of time with a weak romance between the two of them. The premise of the story was intriguing. I just think that the passage of historical time needed was just too much for this story.
