Lamb by Christopher Moore

Lamb is a story about the first 30 years of Jesus's life, told by his best friend Biff (aka Levi). It is a beautifully written story that I'm really upset to be finished with. I honestly debated about reading the book again for the second time after just having finished it.

Biff is brought back from the dead to write another gospel, so the book is interlaced mostly with the story of his time and travels with Jesus, but also with his time with an angel in the present. Some of this time with Jesus includes travels towards the east looking for the three wise men who visited Jesus on the day of his birth.

Biff is an incredible character whose voice is hard to erase from your head. And Jesus is of course what should be expected, but add a smart ass best friend who will help bring some lightness to his character.

Let me state that you do not to be Christian or even have a religion in order to read this book, although if you know some of the bible, you'll begin to recognize bits of it towards the end. Of course this story has little to no truth in it, but I think everyone could get something out of it.

I just may become one of those crazy fangirls now ;-)
