just another day of Catholic pondering by Sarah Reinhard
I am always on the lookout for good fiction. When it’s written from a Catholic worldview, that’s a bonus. When it includes tough nuns who have a sense of humor that makes me want to know them in real life, that’s gonna keep my attention. When it has a mystery, adventure, and humor, it might [...]
