Confessions of a Closet Catholic- In class discussion

I thoroughly enjoyed last week's topic and discussion. Religion is usually a subject that people shy away from, but it was obvious that we all enjoyed the book and wanted to state our opinions. Sharing personal experiences was beneficial to the discussion and furthered our education on the topic, if we were uninformed before. I feel that we are very comfortable talking and discussing in this class, which makes the topics easier to grasp and to make our own connections to the material.

I just LOVED Confessions of a Closet Catholic. The style in which the author wrote compelled me to continue, along with the development of characters. I also liked the fact that the author wasn't drilling a certain point over and over again. Her writing was smooth and her purpose was clear without being over obvious.

I looked up Sarah Littman (author of this book) and she has written one other:
PURGE-->
I am interested to see if it is similar to Confessions.
:)

NOTE: This book does not come out until April of 2009... :( we'll have to wait a while to read it.
