I've tried more than once to get into Passing on Faith, but ultimatively I gave up. I wasn't able to connect to the characters, the plot, or the flow of words.

Thanks to NetGalley for the e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I read a LGBTQIA+ book during Pride month! Which was more of a happy co-incidence than good planning, but I'll take it. The LGBTQIA parts of the book were very strong - different relationships, different models for relationships, acceptance and how wee can get there and so on. And Cat is adorable. Some of the details (like the romance book) were really funny and charming.

The weakness of the book is the plot with Rachel and the church. It just didn't make a lot of sense to me, and seemed really underdeveloped. I think this could have been developed further, leading to more of a romance / thriller vibe, or minimised and just focused on Micah healing from his family drama.

Either way, not a bad way to spend a rainy weekend.
