This was a book club book, and by FAR my least favorite one we've read. The book is the story of the wives of Jacob and what goes on in the red tent. The story strays from the bible so much that it was really hard to read. It took so many liberties to add or change things that it was frustrating. I don't even know the bible all that well and I know these stories are not right. I know it's a novel and therefore fiction, but really, to deviate that far from the bible when the story is regarding biblical characters is just frustrating. There are so many rave reviews for this book, I just don't understand.
