Oh wow!!!! I didn't know there...Oh my goodness. Oh wow!!!! I didn't know there was going to be another books! This almost has me in tears :) I can't even explain how much I adored "Pearl in the Sand" That book was absolutely amazing, and I've read it numerous times, getting something new from it each time. Tessa Afshar really let God write through her pen. Wow! I don't think I have wanted to win a give-away so badly as now!<br /><br />Which Bible person would I like to read about in a fiction book...hmm, that's a tough one. I think I'd want to read about either Anna the prophetess who got to finally see her Savior, or Hannah, the mother of Samuel. There are so many though. I actually hope that God will allow me to write a Biblical fiction centering around Hannah, Samuel's mother. That would be so amazing :)Raechelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11845190071944799602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2033222968822363515.post-62330553313525685932012-04-18T15:48:02.748-05:002012-04-18T15:48:02.748-05:00~Someone already mentioned this, but I would like ...~Someone already mentioned this, but I would like to read about the experience one of Noah's daughters-in-law had on the time up and during the Flood.

Linda...Katrina, oh, that one would be interesting!<br /><br />Linda, no, you don't have to read "Pearl in the Sand" first. Both books are stand-alones. :) But PitS is an awesome book that I recommend!<br /><br />rubynreba -- there are several books out there about Esther...my favorite is "Jewel of Persia" by Roseanna M.

I have been wanting to read her work.

You always hear about Rachel and poor Leah sort of gets forgotten about.
