The Dovekeepers by Alice Hoffman

5.0

I didn't really look into this book much, it just kept showing up on the internet and so I had to give it a try. Yes, the cover played a role in this.

This book is incredible. It tells the story of four women in Ancient Israel and I loved each one. It is a story of Masada, based on historical events and told with such authenticity and incredible voice that I couldn't stop reading and I didn't want to stop reading. I didn't want the characters' stories to end.

This is a heavier book than I expected - not the standard summer reading selection - but I have to highly recommend it all the same.
