I might raise the star rating to 5 stars with reflection. This book is not for everyone, but it is for me. I have a lot of thoughts about this novel, but I’m not quite sure how to articulate them. The way Leede really captures a sense of Catholic imagination mixed with Americana is truly a feat. The exploration of growing up is also well captured here. Everything really fit together.
