*** I received a free e-copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review ***Finding Faith is an awesome book. Be prepared for an emotional ride that you won't want to get off of.  Tabatha Vargo has a way of writing these characters that worm their way into your heart before you even know they're there. You just want to shelter them but they are strong characters and even though some of their struggles are hard to read, you know that they will pull through each time and be even better because of it.In the first 2 Blow Hole books you get a small glimpse of Finn, the lead singer. I was fully prepared to have to warm up to him. I expected him to be another hard ass with layers. The more layers the author peels away, the more you like him. I DIDN'T expect to love Finn right away. I DIDN'T expect him to be a really good guy. Finn is an amazing character. As a child he's bounced around from foster home to foster home until finally he's adopted and has a place to call his own. His adoptive mother is sick and even as a teenager his top priority is taking care of her. One day Finn finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time and ends up being slapped with 30 days community service for something that he didn't do. Now he has to show up every day and help out at the very church that he was accused of vandalizing. Enter Faith. The pastor's daughter. Finn and Faith just mesh so well together. She's been taught her whole life to fear boys like him but she gives him a chance and they form and unlikely friendship that blossoms (and wilts) throughout the book.Finding Faith was both tragic and uplifting at the same time. I literally went through the whole range of emotions while reading it. And really, what more could you ask of a book? You WILL laugh. You WILL cry. Trust me on this one. I was surprised to find that this was my favorite book in the series (I really loved Zeke) and even after 418 pages, I still wanted more.I don't know how Tabatha Vargo managed to hook me so thoroughly, but she has. My only regret with the Blow Hole series is that I read it too fast and now I have to wait to see what this amazing author comes up with next.
