She’s not like a regular nun, she’s a cool nun.
Sister Holiday is pretty messed up and I like it, she’s got plenty of tattoo and has no problem with stealing her students weed. My kind of nun.
After a fire and a dead student Sister Holiday goes straight (no pun intended for the gay nun) into sleuth mood to find out what happened.
As a mystery there’s not much of a puzzle but I like Sister Holiday and hope the second book gives more of a mystery.
I hate when there's a bunch of religion in stories but this is fine.
