Irene Brodsky read and liked Ruth's review of Inclinations:

I do come from a Christian background, which probably plays a big influence in how I viewed the book. Parts of it reminded me of the book of Ezekiel, especially with the images in the sky. Other parts reminded me of Genesis and Isaiah (examples include Noah's Ark and Lucifer's fall described). A large part reminded me of Revelation (such as the judgements and the beast). Overall, the theme seemed to be similar to that of the prophets of the Old Testament and Revelation which is God will judge sin for those who don't reprent and God will save those who reprent and seek His face.

I don't know if this was the author's intention (for me to read this in light of what the Bible says), but as a reader, this is how I interpreted it. I think this is one of those books that every reader will read and see different things. That is, in my opinion, a strength.

I found this book to be very well-written. The stories didn't seem to be in any particular order (though a couple of them were) but there was a common theme that connected the stories together, and I enjoyed that too. Now, it could be that the stories were in order and if this book is like the Bible, then endtime prophecy (which I believe in) is given in bits and pieces in the Old Testament, which is what the author could have been trying for in this book too. If so, I'd say he succeeded, and that would actually make him not only a good story teller but also a master at weaving the stories together as well. (Like I said, I'm not sure what the author's intent was in writing this book. I am merely saying what I saw as I read it. Reading a book like this is highly subjective.)

But I do recommend this book. The stories were interesting to read. I finished the book in under an hour because I was enjoying it. A couple stories you'll find in this book are the fall of Lucifer, the Bride that was once full of beauty and lost it, and how the year got shortened to 290 days. (less) "
