Book Review: Catholic, Reluctantly
Catholic, Reluctantlyby Christian M. Frank is the first book in a series called John Paul 2 High. Seven teens form a brand-new Catholic high school in a decrepit building. In some respects, it’s a simple story: boy meets girl, boy and girl embrace their faith (and perhaps each other – but this is NOT a kissing book).
There are also subplots involving a sabateur out to destroy the fledging school, a sinister classmate who is brilliant yet cruel, a gun-toting masked man, and wrestling team rivalry. And that’s not counting the crickets… which I wouldn’t even attempt with a calculator.
