Enjoyed this book right dow to the last word
Faith, is a book that all religions and atheists would enjoy. It gives insight as to why some accusations of wrong doings in the news could create hatred. This book is a good book for group discussion.

Could not put this book down. The story was moving, heart breaking, and believable. I could not help but feel deep sadness for the characters in the novel and it made you reflect on your own beliefs.
