This is the story of Rebekah. You know, the Rebekah from the Bible who married Isaac and gave birth to Jacob and Esau!?

While this is a fictionalized account, I was very pleasantly surprised by how biblically accurate it remained. It beautifully marries what we've read in the Bible with some filled-in gaps to bring the story to life. I knew the story going in, but I absolutely loved getting insight into what Rebekah's mindset might have been throughout the various stages of her life. The writing is beautiful and helps Rebekah feel more like a real person with human fears, frustrations, hopes, and celebrations. 

I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend if you like biblical retellings!
