 So I'm kinda surprised how much I enjoyed it. The spice was on point, I generally liked the plot, but there were some pretty big holes. I think more work could have been done on why he went into priesthood... his sister's story in and of itself wasn't a compelling enough reason for me without knowing more about his thought process. I liked how everything got wrapped up, even though the final drama is eyerollingly predictable. I'm not religious (but was raised Lutheran) so a lot of the religious references were lost on me but I got the gist anyway.
