This was so cute but, unfortunately, I have too much religious trauma to enjoy a book discussing religious practice/spaces in the ways this does. I hoped that it being non-Christian would help but it was still an issue. My decision to not continue has nothing at all to do with the quality of the story. This is a very sweet YA that’s exceptionally well-written. If you can enjoy devoutly religious characters, I strongly recommend it! Bummed I couldn’t get into this one.
