Not a rave fave

Converting Kate
by Beckie Weinheimer

The title is misleading--it should have been, How To Live With A Religious Fanatic...and stay somehwat sane.    You pretty much know from the first pages that she's given up on her mother's religion.  There's no 'converting'.  She's just learning how to find a place for herself in a world where there are no predefined lines.  There are no church schedules, church friends, or church code of conduct. It's all up to her.

It's an interesting book but I wouldn't exactly call it a favorite. Even though the topic was deep, some of the characters were sadly shallow.
