📖Recommend for Grades 9 and up📖
by Katie Henry
Michael is a non-believer who isn’t
happy about being sent to a Catholic school upon his family’s recent move. He
can’t imagine who of his religious peers will want to be friends with an
Atheist, but then he meets the members of Heretics Anonymous. While Lucy is a
true believer, she is also a feminist. There is also Avi who is both Jewish and
gay, Max who is eccentric and likes to wear his cloak and Eden who would rather
practice paganism. What starts off as them being a soundboard for each other, leads
to acts of rebellion against the school and its rules. While their acts start
small, they grow bigger and more complicated landing Michael in some hot water
with his new friends.
A terrific story about teens who
come together despite their differences and tackle what they all believe in.
Each member of Heretics Anonymous is wonderful and readers will likely have a
favorite or two. This is definitely worth a read (or listen as Michael Crouch
does a terrific job on the audio narration) no matter what your religious
beliefs.
