Review: Hatred disguised as love, misogyny masquerading as religion

This was one of those books I kept putting down and picking up - the thought of this alternate version of Christianity, both utterly believable and utterly horrifying to me personally, made it both impossible not to finish and painfully hard to read. I was torn between hating and loving Kenan. Such charisma and utter ballsyness are both attractive and repellent. As for the heroine; incredibly stupid, incredibly brave, incredibly infuriating. This book is a mind twister on a profound level. Beautifully written, utterly engrossing, terribly believable. I can't say I enjoyed it, but I'm terribly glad I read it. It's a wake up call for all of us, and we can all use a good wake up call. As ambivalent as it left me feeling, I will definitely read the next installment in this series.
