What You Thought You Knew About Jezebel

Living with Jezebel: An In-Depth Look at the Queen of Narcissism, Her Tactics, and Three Generations of Destruction by Miko Marsh

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I love how Miko took the time to give you background about the culture, the characters, and the culture. She didn't assume you were reading from the Christian perspective. 

Most people only know of the "word of mouth" or modern meaning of Jezebel; still, others may not realize that she was a real person. I love how Miko took the historical accounts, then made them alive in today's terms. She talks and walks with you through the journey of the book. Allowing you to come to your own conclusion, while shining a light on all aspects of her personality so you can come to a complete and full conclusion. 

Being able to see how the name has morphed into so much more, yet stayed the same is awesome. I don't want to give away anything, but this was a great read. I'd recommend it to anyone.
