Harem Wish

Rating:
Summary: Highly Unpleasant Novel
Review: This book moves between a heroine in the modern day world, named Codie, and a heroine in the ancient world of an Arabian harem, named Sari.

Whether the book is telling Codie's story or Sari's, it is told in the first person.

For some reason, the women in the harem are surrounded by hordes of half-starved cats. They tend to feed their favorites from time to time. The rest they simply knock away from them.

While the beginning attitude towards the cats was unpleasant, it was only a mild warm-up for Ms. Carr.

There is a scene where a woman in the harem dies after giving birth. The cats fight over the placenta.

Next we have an unusual meat served at the table of the harem women, following a bitter outburst from one....At that point, I'd had enough.
