I wanted very badly for this book to mince well with my brain but I have never been the poetic type.

Lillith was cast aside after not bowing to submission and goes on a journey of justice. Lillith is the sory of the first woman.

I struggled with trying to connect with the story, I love long descriptive chapters so I felt very much needing more to satisfy the story I was trying to play through in my head. It was just a very hard read for me personally.It might fit well with others but for me it just wasn't a good fit. Not the type of book I could see myself pulling off the shelf to reread.

Thank you to Netgalley and Alcove Press for the ARC. It is unfortunate that this one didn't connect with me like most books do.

Nikki Marmery's book, Lilith, reads like a poem. I found myself stopping to savor lines and images.

Lilith is Adam's first wife, and it does not take long for her to leave the Garden of Eden. What follows is a gorgeous and descriptive narrative of Lilith's battle with God. However, I had trouble following how God works in Marmery's world-building, and the brief explanation of how God presents Himself in other religions did not satisfy me. So even though I enjoyed the writing, I found myself questioning the story and the plot devices which took away from my overall enjoyment.

Although I struggled with the plot details, I thoroughly enjoyed Lilith's observations and her dry wit made me laugh aloud. I was sad to have to say goodbye to her.

Thank you to Netgalley and Alcove Press for the ARC. This is my honest review.
