Man what a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. For about the first third of the novel I kept thinking 'Wow! This really is a five star novel.' But then the story evolved to the point that it read like a script for a Hallmark movie produced by the Catholic Church! It would be great if there was some type of warning that this was going to happen. I feel tricked!
Unless you are a believing Catholic, avoid this novel.

I felt exactly the same. Really liked the beginning but then it became a Catholic propaganda pamphlet. It got me so annoyed!

I should have read your review before picking up the book, I couldn't agree more.
Same here too! What a bunch of cocoanuts at the end.
I am catholic and it felt sacrilegious to me… non believer to converted- really?
