The prophetess By Evonne Marzouk

The Prophetess tells a modern story about Rachel, an American teenage girl called to join a secret community of Jewish prophets. The story weaves Jewish tradition, mysticism, modern Jewish American life, and discovery of Israel into a coming-of-age story of a girl discovering her power and purpose in life. The book is targeted at young adults but is also very appropriate for all ages.

My Thoughts...

I don't know much about the Jewish culture so this was a leaning read for me as well as a book to enjoy.
I am not really sure about prophets  either. so this book was a learning read all the way around.
It was different for me. But I like change sometimes.
I hope that you will grab a copy and see what you think about it.
I gave this one 3.5.
