This book was a last minute find at Barnes and Noble, I saw it on the bottom shelf and decided to take it home. I finished it in one afternoon.

The book takes place in the tiny and super religious town of Clemency, Texas, and it's narrated by a teenage girl named Delaney. Nothing happens in Clemency except Church, which Delaney isn't interested in since she lost her younger sister. But everything changes when her coworker finds the image of Baby Jesus on a cheese wheel. At first, she thinks it's nothing but then religious relics start popping up all over town. Late Night Shows take notice, and soon the whole country is flocking to Clemency. But is it all real or just a hoax?

I would give this book a 6/10. The plot was really unique and interesting, but the whole time I was reading it I felt like I was being talked down to. It was most likely written for a younger audience. Overall, it was enjoyable to read but underwhelming nonetheless.
