My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Winner covers some painful personal ground--depression, anxiety and existing in a post-faith condition. Or at least a state of not knowing what to do with her faith in light of the psychological trauma that she has been through. I don't particularly enjoy these kinds of memoirs and I was thinking of putting it down but she really pulls it together in the the end, showing how simply participating in the community of believers can win the day. While I find these stories a little self-indulgent, her writing kept me coming back. A damn fine writer.
