Zipporah Wife of Moses by Marek Halter

This book is about Zipporah (from the biblical story). She is a black woman in a white world, loved by her adopted father, hated by one of her adopted sisters, and loved by Moses, the man she loves. She is demanding, in what is probably a good way, by refusing to marry Moses until he agrees to fulfill his destiny of leading the children of Israel out of Egypt.

I liked her determination to get Moses on the right track and help him in any way she felt she could. Otherwise, overall it was pretty good, but not something I would likely read again.

I should explain. I am a rereader. If I loved a book the first time, I will totally want to go back and read it again, and again, and again. The series I've probably read the most times is The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis. If I had to guess how many times I've read those seven books... well, probably at least 8 to 10 times all the way through. So, if I say I probably wouldn't want to read a book again later, it doesn't mean it's a bad book, it's just not a really great book.
