Lay Your Body Down
by Amy Suiter Clarke
I saw this book at Barnes & Noble being credited as being written by a local author. I added it to my Libby list and it’s been sitting there for about a month waiting. I started this book and finished it in 2 days, getting the audiobook so I could go back and forth. This perfectly captured what living in a small town is like and showed the darker side.
Del returns to her hometown after her ex boyfriend dies under mysterious circumstances. She faces family and old friends and the megachurch, Messiah, and Pastor Rick, one of her biggest tormentors. This book touches on so much, and being a relatively new mother and Eve’s change of heart after having her child really resonated with me.
This is not a light read. A lot of triggers for religious trauma, sexual assault, suicide, murder, and poor family relations.
