Merry's Books

These are the books that I'm either reading or have read recently. Most will be fiction and I will admit.....some will be chick lit. I love reading and hopefully you'll like this site.

The Red Tent by Anita Diamant




I LOVE this book. It tells the story of Dinah from the Bible. If you look in the Bible, Dinah is not really mentioned much (like many women in the Bible). This book explores how Dinah would have lived and her life. The really interesting part of this book is the interactions between Dinah, her mother and her father's other wives. It definitely makes you think aboout how women's roles have changed through the years (and not always for the better!). I would definitely recomend this book. Do not give up just b/c of all the long, hard to pronounce names. Click here for more information.
