review 1: I would say the plot is really about a teenager finding his faith and discovering a form of Christianity. The book never really say what religion it is but it's very, almost judgy. The religious people believed homosexuals were evil, abortion was a sin, and people who don't believe in God are going to Hell. Honestly, I didn't really like it at all. The entire thing was just slow. The book just had like 250 extra pages. And I couldn't realistically imagine anyone acting like the majority of these characters. The middle of the book was the best and really only good part. If you are an atheist the best advice I can give you is to read this book with an extremely open mind. The last fourth of the book or so was increasingly offensive. The plot is a bit all over the place too. ... moreThe only saving grace was the accuracy of the relationships between the boy and his two best friends.
review 2: Cross country runner Phillip has it tough. Not only is he tormented by a badgering coach, but his mom is out of the picture, and his dad is somewhat distant. Enter Rebekah, a hot girl who might be interested in him - if Phillip can prove himself worthy as a Christian. Phillip joins Rebekah's church youth group and tries to turn himself into someone Rebekah will admire. This is an interesting YA book that I really enjoyed about a topic not often covered - the internal/spiritual life of a teen boy. Klauss also writes with humor and I found Phillip's progress throughout the book particularly engaging. Hope it finds an audience! less
