Curious if anyone else has read this book? I saw it on a table at a bookstore and was excited to read a novel that would challenge the dogma of Christianity.

Lilith - the first woman. Rebel, goddess, mythological feminist icon. In this book, though? Passive, bland, and ignorant. I wanted to see a strong woman who refused to be submissive to men. Instead I got a confused leaf in the wind, barely taking any action throughout the whole book.

I don’t want to rip too hard into the book. Obviously, writing a book and having it published is a huge accomplishment. But I found myself skipping entire pages to just get to the end of the book.

Interested in hearing the thoughts of others if they read this book. Maybe I’m just not looking at it from the right perspective.

    I agree with you. It’s a disappointing when a book doesn’t live up to the expectations set by its premise. I didn’t like the plot of the story!
