About the Book
Everything is against them
Born into slavery, Rapha is
a Philistine who is almost twice as big as his Israelite masters. They find any
excuse they can to beat him. When he is accused of murder, he runs off into the
desert, planning to never return and hate all Israelites forever.
Nava’s mother died when she
was born. Since then she has been
raised mostly by her father, but her grandmother and grandfather have also
helped. Her passion is to help those who need it most, whether it is watching
the healer’s young daughter, Rina, or bringing fresh tunics for the Philistine
slave who receives far too many whippings. When Rapha runs off into the desert
with no water, Nava begs her father to go after him and bring him back safely.
Will Nava’s father find
Rapha? Can Rapha learn that not all Israelites are untrustworthy? Will Nava
trust her abba and Rapha to Yahweh’s care or take matters into her own hands?
A Beauty and the Beast reimagining set during the time of King David.
My thoughts: Lo, How a Rose was a super cute, short-and-sweet read, a retelling of Beauty and the Beast but set in Bible times. I loved Nava's personality, and I remember thinking halfway through how, if I was a mom, I'd want a physical copy for my daughter. Faith is really good at weaving in historical Biblical fact, which I love! Super cute retelling, especially for a B&B re-telling junkie :)
About the Author
Faith Blum is a small-town Wisconsin girl. She’s lived in,
or outside of, small towns her whole life. The thought of living in a city with
more than 60,000 people in it scares her, especially after some interesting
adventures driving through big cities like Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota.
Faith currently resides in the middle of the state of
Wisconsin with her husband and their cat, Smokey. She is blessed to be able to
have writing as her full-time career with household work and cooking to do on
the side. She loves to paint walls as long as she doesn’t have to do hallways
or ceilings.
When not writing, you can find her cooking food from scratch
due to food allergies (fun), doing dishes (meh), knitting, crocheting, sewing,
reading, or spending time with her husband (yay!). She is also a Community
Assistant for the Young Writers Workshop and loves her work there. She
loves to hear from her readers, so feel free to contact her on her website.
