This is a really lovely, moving book about a couple of really important topics that aren't written about very often in YA these days–a Christian faith community + abortion. Like...a lot of American teens are at least nominally Christian and plenty of them do believe in God. But they don't necessarily want to be reading capital-C Christian Fiction. Anyway so, I think this will really resonate with a lot of teens. Also I loved the role music plays in the story and in Tess discovering her own voice. This is great for fans of like Deb Caletti, Jen Mathieu, etc.
ALSO, I always feel like this will come across as damning with faint praise, but it's fairly short! We as a society need more short YA books! Not every teen wants a big brick novel and not every novel needs to be a big brick!
