Mary’s character is so engaging, a little bit of a tease, as well as a bit like the girl next door. I enjoyed getting more of a glimpse of what might have been Jesus’ younger years before the incident at the temple when he was about His Father’s business. Joseph and Mary’s relationship also seemed more like how I would picture them….young and in love, but at the same time, nervous about their duties as parents to the Son of God.
So many other portrayals of Mary, Joseph, and Jesus seem to be uptight (whether it’s in a book or movie format), but this book is so refreshing, realistic, and natural. I highly recommend this book, and I look forward to reading more from Laura Davis in the future!
