pickLoved it! After Hope‘s younger sister Charity outs their older sister Faith, their ultra-conservative Christian parents plan to send Faith to a conversion camp to “fix” her. Instead, Faith runs away. Nearly a year later, when a fellow classmate, Danny, is kicked out of his home and ostracized by his friends for coming out, Hope gives him a place to stay. Their friendship deepens and they form a punk band to counter all the hate in their community.
Short but interesting read on hope punk, novels that focus on hope and redemption. Hope is something we can all use a dose of now and then.

pickI loved this! Hope's conservative Christian family is broken after her older sister runs away after being outed as lesbian. A year later, she rescues a classmate who is kicked out after coming out, and together form a rock band to provide resistance and hope. Hopepunk!
