It was alright, but the religious aspects of it kind of annoyed me and how she couldn't be what she wanted becuase of it. I thought the main character was a bit of a slut (not too much) because she was so oblivious to things around her. She was also way too much of a drama queen. The author did a pretty good job of writing the book, but I didn't get enough emotion and heart break off of the fathers death, he was just no longer there (it didn't even make me cry).
