I put off writing this review because I wanted to think about why THE SECRET CHORD didn't work for me. Fate had conspired to burden us with the other's enduring presence. If this hadn't been for book club, I wouldn't have finished - it would have been chucked into the donation bin and deleted from my GR shelves.īut alas. I really had to force myself to stick with this one, and ended up skimming pages towards the end because I just no longer cared about the story. But hey, try new things, right? Maybe it'll work out. I'm going to be honest with you here - if my book club hadn't chosen this as the pick of the month, I never would have bothered to finish THE SECRET CHORD. THE SECRET CHORD is a book about the life of King David, from valorous beginning to tragic end, told by Nathan the Prophet. While I enjoy historical fiction, I prefer reading about time periods I know at least something about so reading doesn't turn into information overload, but I know next to nothing about King David, apart from the fact that he defeated Goliath.
