- I've looked at this book, The Patron Saint of butterflies by Cecilia Galante several times at the library.
- I finally brought it home to read.
- I read it in one blissful day.
- Interesting cast of characters including the independent and courageous Honey and when the time is right, Agnes and Benny persevere.
- Religion is at the center of the story.
- Not just any old religion but a cult led by Emmanuel and Veronica.
- The cult began in some small Iowa town where Emmanuel was a professor.
- Love the grandmother-Nana Pete (Petunia); she is not part of the cult-thank heavens!!
- Winky, another cool character, has a beautiful butterfly garden(something I aspire to have also).
- You should read this book just so you can see the battle that rages inside of Agnes and maybe all of us from time to time.
