If you have ever questioned and walked away from Christianity, this book is for you, especially women. There are no answers here, just characters you’ll feel like are ripped right out of your own life asking the same questions you may have asked.



If you want a happy ending where Justice is served or the characters change their lives in a big way, you will not get it here. I personally found it more relatable that very little changed in the end, but that may not be your cup of tea. The earth didn’t split open, nor did anything change when I left the church, so it made sense to me that none of that happened here
