A Saturday Wife

+ Pretty good read

This is very different from Naomi Regan's other books. It's truly a novel but I loved it!! It was a very interesting picture of a girl that married someone she wasn't sure of and of her quest for a "rich" life, in every sense of the word. Naomi....you go girl!! Can't wait for your next book. ...

Rebecca Kohn, 2005

Amazing book

+ Not bad, but there are better
+ Very Good

A must read - thoughtful, paints a vivid picture and explores a story that is only a blip on the radar in the original Bible storyline. A magnificent effort - right up there with The Red Tent and Geisha, A Memoir in my book. Love it!
