Have a Little Faith in Me
by Sonia Hartl
This book cracked me up and I raced through it in less than a day. I adored Cece’s friendship with Paul and how he knew more about consent and respect for women than she did at times. Their hijinks at Jesus camp are hilarious and I adore Cece’s courage in standing up for how women’s bodies shouldn’t be portrayed as a source of sin or temptation or shame and how boys not girls should be responsible for curbing their own hormones. Paul was a dreamboat the whole time but without being too perfect- he read like a real guy.
It also had the most laugh out loud awkward depiction of teen sex, which also turned out to be fun and hot (tho not graphic) while being so realistic I almost couldn’t take it.
I enjoyed the heck out of the teen girl friendships in here and how supportive they were. I am always wishing for more books that show Christians in a realistic light- they aren’t all perfect angels or judgmental villains and few books bother to make them more than one or the other. In this book Christianity has strengths and weaknesses as a doctrine, and it’s followers have virtues and flaws and nuance just like everyone else.
Absolutely adored this book- meaningful topics teens need to hear wrapped up in a funny and endearing story!
