About this audiobook
Beth Webb Hart, author of Christy Award finalist Grace at Low Tide (K1174), delivers a compelling faith-based novel that highlights a small-town girl's coming-of-age journey through her college years. A precocious and idealistic poet, Adelaide Piper can't wait to escape her tiny, South Carolina mill town for the freedoms of a prestigious, far-away university. But she's unprepared for the party school reality that soon leaves her devastated, demoralized, and desolate. And then she remembers the "Jesus freak" who'd been her best friend-until her spiritual transformation.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Nothing about the cover, comments, or CIP made me think this would be such a strongly religious book. It in fact, became down right "preachy". The story covers the college years of a young SC woman who goes to a small private Virginia college seeing it as an escape from the small mill town where she was raised. After being sexually assaulted her freshman year, she returns home in a fragile state and through one of her religious friends finds southern fundamental Christianity. I never felt truly connected to the character who had the unfortunate habit of using the word "humph' when things weren't to her liking. Other characters in the book were not fully developed as well. There is potential here, it just fell flat and then the preaching became overwhelming. The first pages of the book are the best writing in it.
