Godshot
by Chelsea Bieker
This book jumps right into crazy in a way that you can’t tell where it’s headed exactly. It’s a story about fanatic religion and Thea author, Chelsea Bieker, takes you down a road that illuminates the depths of brainwashing and how it can start our feeling normal but then progresses in such a way that folks are sucked in and can’t find their way out. The eternal labyrinth. Some of the imagery is beautiful and some of it is ugly and horrifying. It is an interesting twist on the American coming-of-age novel and taps into many sensitive social and economic issues that can grip onto individuals and a community.. Bieker also conveys both endearing and harsh realities of the mother-daughter bond.
