Summary: A MUST READ FOR EVERY WOMAN OUT THERE!
Comment: The first thing I have to say is, "Buy this book!" It's an absolute necessity. In "And On The 8th Day She Rested," Mason tells the tale of Ruth Johnson, who after 14 years of physical, mental and verbal abuse, is FINALLY free of her husband. Or is she? Mason's novel begs the question, "What happens after the abuse ends?" as Ruth moves on with her life, trying to figure out who exactly she is, and how important she is as a person. This novel is so descriptive that you can feel every hit, taste the salt of Ruth's tears, and smile as she takes baby steps towards her new, abuse-free life. Pitfalls and drama continue to unfold throughout Ruth's "awakening", but it's the process of Ruth's growth that touches the heart of every person who will read this novel. Mason definitely knows how to keep a reader riveted to each page, and at 244 pages, one will find themselves racing to the last page, wishing to have more to read.
If you want a grit-filled, true-to-life, descriptive-bound, emotionally-driven story, that will make you not only appreciate Ruth's life, but the life YOU lead, read, "And On The 8th Day She Rested." You won't regret it. ---Shonell Bacon, The Nubian Chronicles.
