There should be trigger warnings about this book.

There are so many flashbacks and flash forwards, it is disorienting. 

Additionally, the author does understand the Christian faith or Catholic faith the way she suggests. It makes me sad for her, the author. 

I live in Carteret County and believe the author did capture the tenor of the town’s culture.
