girl meets god

I have been reading this book for weeks. It's called Girl Meets God, and it's by Lauren Winner, whom I met at a conference in June. It's about how she converted to Orthodox Judaism, and then she converted to Christianity. It's about God and loss and sorrow and redemption. To be honest, I found the book kind of boring much of the time. But when I got to the last few chapters I was so moved that suddenly, unexpectedly, the whole book was worth reading. I'm really glad I stuck it out. 296 pages.
