Why I added this book to my TBR pile: I guess I saw the cover of this book and wanted it to be a mystery, but it is not. Nonetheless, the story of an older woman seeking life as a nun* sounded interesting, so I added it to my pile.
Will I read more by this author / about this subject? Probably Not Maybe Definitely I will always seek to learn and explore matters of faith . I'm not too sure what else Ms. Christmas has to offer, but I may look at more of her work.
The narrator was Elizabeth Wiley. She has a wonderfully comforting voice.
*The story has another facet beneath the nun question. Ms. Christmas is a survivor of rape and this work is the tale of her healing. Because of this, parts of the book are hard to read. The rape has nothing to do with the church.
