Haha but not a tome compared to Poisonwood Bible and The Lacuna! I’m so excited that you enjoyed this book. I also like how she writes about women without being like “I WRITE ABOUT WOMEN” – if that makes sense? What do you like about the fact that she’s religious?
(also, couldn’t have picked a more appropriately titled book for your last post before jetting around the world!)
another lift from your “flight behavior,” Brave Little Katie, clearly born curious, and breeding curious, religious (if not in church, nevertheless, looking for, and sharing the epiphanies of seekers after stars and where-we-are’s of wonder.
