“Here, the true you is most often magnified, for better or for worse.”
Abbess Theodora
In a world increasingly connected to computers and machines but disconnected to self and others, Dr. Michele Stewart finds herself drowning in a life that no longer holds meaning. Searching for a deeper connection after losing her partner, Alice, she enters a contemplative monastery, living a life dedicated to prayer, to faith in things unseen. Though most of her family and friends are convinced that she has become a nun to run away from her life, she finds herself more attuned to life than she has been in years. Stripped of the things that define most people in the outside world - career, clothing, possessions - she rediscovers a long forgotten part of herself. But sooner than she expects, the outside world intrudes, forcing her to confront doubts and demons she thought she had left behind. The ultimate test of her vocation comes from the unlikeliest source when she finds herself falling in love again. As she struggles to discern where she belongs, she discovers the terrifying truth of Abbess Theodora’s warning. For better or for worse.

When I first realized I was gay, I was a 38 yo single woman, and in fact it happened when I read a book not realizing it was a lesbian novel and through the book I realized so many things, including my sexuality. No this here book didn’t make me catholic, :) but it reminded me of that book 35 years ago.
This book is so well written, makes you love the characters and identify with the main ones, and it never happened to me before buy I actually cried at the end of it. I cried from sadness and frustration to tell the truth I don’t understand why the author chose to end it like the way she did, I would like to know why, I would have liked to have a different ending, and I am not going to elaborate on that because I don’t want to give it away.
With all that, it is an optimistic book.
With the narration of Gabri Zackman it was an immense pleasure...

Caren J. Werlinger is definitely a safe bet for a good read. I kept side-eyeing this audiobook, pretty sure that it was going to be worth my time but leery of the setting and subject and of having read repeatedly that I was in for THE FEELS (all caps warranted and attested to). Well, Werlinger managed to make the setting and subject surprisingly interesting and the feels were all justified and satisfying.
Gabra Zackman is an excellent narrator. Having listened to her beautifully perform this and The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow, I will be on the lookout for more of her work.
I would make a shit nun.
Pleasantly Surprised
