I didn’t know what to expect with this book, but a parochial text was even in the realm of possibilities. I am not religious, and I can appreciate others’ faiths, but I choose to not partake in religious life. So when I read this book, I was taken aback by the highly religious thread that was woven throughout the book. It was a decent plot—think Robin Hood times crossed with a tamer Beauty and the Beast and with a splash of Cinderella. I am glad that I read (and finished) this book because if I ever get to teach again and I encounter religious students, I can highly recommend this book. There are sermons, questions of faith, and conversations with God. Thank goodness for me, there was a happy ending.
