I’ve been having so many delays since my monitor went back on me and I had problems getting, installing, and working my new one. My writing – even my e-mailing and my walking a half-hour each day– is way behind.
But I do have time to share this latest review of “Figs & Pomegranates & Special Cheeses” posted on amazon on December 4.
“Wow! What a great book! From the title, I was a little apprehensive because it didn’t seem to describe a book I’d like to read. The title came together later and was very appropriate. I was captivated from the beginning, I loved the main character Dar. She was strong and aware and thoughtful and faithful as well as a good friend, wife and mother. I love the story of Job and this story was a nice addition to the things about Job I already knew. I would have liked to know more about Job and Dar’s children, their personalities and interests.
I think Mona did a great job in capturing the historical element of the time period, keeping the reader wanting more and building relationships with characters. I would read more from this author!
*Note: I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.”

Their is no doubt that this is a wonderful and well written book. At the same time, I don’t know that the title will attract as many people as might truly be interested and appreciate it.
Too late now, darn it!
Good review! Hope it helps with the sales.
How have you been? It would be nice to get together again after Christmas. I’m working on a commission which is due before the 25th as well as trying to deal with all the preparations for this time of year.
Let’s keep in touch. Marilyn

Marilyn, let’s count on January. It seems that life slows down a little in January and February. Whew!
I like that review. And I do feel it is honest, and I do think that readers will read it as honest. Congratulations, Mona. And I still prefer the Mrs Job- title. Because of the photo,there was never any doubt in my mind that this Mrs.Job belonged to the Bible
Thanks, Leelah. Unfortunately we’re stuck with the new title. Obviously I’ve made all kinds of mistakes as a marketer.
I enjoyed reading the lovely review.
Thanks. You are so kind and attentive.
