          <body><![CDATA[OKAY, okay, okay.  So this book was a little bit interesting to me, especially some of the cultural and historical elements.  HOWEVER...my take on this book is that it was written by a Jewish author, therefore she put a biased spin on the relationships and personalities of Leah, Rachel, and Jacob.  ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/50356114">more...</a>]]></body>

          <body><![CDATA[I always like to read the book before the movie - but I seriously CAN'T get through this book.  I don't even want to see the movie now - the story line is boring, my political views have been insulted, and there is nothing redeeming or interesting about this story!  Sorry, but it's just plain BORING...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/66834451">more...</a>]]></body>
