A coming of age story focused on an Evangelical family in the South. During the summer, they travel so that the father can hold revivals where he heals people (or God heals people through him). There is a big emphasis on family relationships, abuse, faith, and feminism. It was well written, but didn't grab me or hold my interest very well.
