Revival Season by Monica West
4.5
emotional reflective sad

Miriam’s father is an abuser and a charlatan who takes his family on revival and faith healing tours every summer. Until now, she has idolized him, despite his “discipline sessions” at home and a violent outburst at a revival the summer before. But this summer is different, and she begins to see who the man at the center of her entire community really is. This book is so good and so well-written.  I also highly recommend the audio. And it’s a debut! I can’t wait to read more from Monica West.
