Why read it?

1 author picked Guadalupe Mysteries as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This lavishly illustrated story of the Virgin of Guadalupe is simply stunning. The authors committed themselves to extensive research, from the very first story of the Virgin's appearance through discoveries about the constellations on her robe, the images in the background, and even recent discoveries of the images in her eyes.

From MaryAnn's list on the mystical Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz.
