It seems that Authors need to have Quirky characters to make books work in todays competive writing world. At first, it seems that The Quirkness was over the top, unreal and unnecessary. I struggled through it for some time. I didnt care for any of the characters or find them believable. It seemed that the Author hated religious people. THEN SOMETHING happened. One character throws a BIBLE at another minor character and breaks her nose. (not a spoiler) That is when I began to love and believe in all the characters and I had to ask myself why? I realized it was the turning point in the book when all the characters get a back bone and become more of their true selves. And Guess what she does hate religious people, who torment others with their religious righteousness, but hits it right on the mark about what true faith and love really look like. So if you are of a faith dont put it down right away, dont get offended, she gets it right.
