I went into this book expecting to see more diverse representation. It was there, for sure, but the main character was still a straight, white male and the diversity of the rest of the cast took a major backseat to him. I was also hoping to see more about how this group of non-Christian students survived and processed their thoughts and feelings of going to a very rigid Christian school, but it was more about them trying to shake things up than about their day-to-day reality. Overall, I enjoyed the story, but it did not match up to my expectations.
