Double Minds

Carver County Library, hard cover, 309 pages

For most of this book, I didn't really enjoy the story. But by the end, I liked it better. I think the afterword was actually my favorite part!

Parker James is a talented song-writer who would love to become a successful singer. When her best friend Serene asks her to re-write some songs so they're more acceptable for a secular audience, Parker really struggles. Worshiping God is the whole reason she wrote the songs in the first place, but a wider audience might be drawn to Serene's Christian songs if she starts getting more air time. This is not the only "double-mindedness" in the story.

The murder mystery angle was interesting, but a bit too drawn out.
