Helpful Score: 1
This book tells the story of Osnath, a young woman visiting Bethlehem with her grandmother. While staying there, Osnath tries to deal with her feelings for two different men and piece together the story of Ruth. However, Osnath has to deal with numerous obstacles in her quest to uncover Ruth's story as no one seems to want certain aspects of that particular story told. The second half of the book contains Ruth's story along with Osnath's commentary about how these events make her think about her own situation in life.
This wasn't a bad book, but it just wasn't what I was expecting. While the story itself was interesting, I didn't really like any of the characters. I understand that everyone has their flaws, but it just seems like all of the characters were making very stupid decisions, ones that probably could have been avoided for the most part with a little bit of communication. Those characters that weren't making bad choices due to lack of communication seemed to be making bad choices due to a lack of morals. Again, I understand that everyone has their flaws, but it just seemed like a bit much in this book.
