Picked this up yesterday, 5/13/09, from Daedalus Books in Columbia, MD for Loriped's Girls Only Bookbox.

Amazon Editorial Review:
From David Guterson—bestselling author of Snow Falling on Cedars—comes this emotionally charged, provocative novel about what happens when a fifteen-year-old girl becomes an instrument of divine grace.

Ann Holmes is a fragile, pill-popping teenaged runaway who receives a visitation from the Virgin Mary one morning while picking mushrooms in the woods of North Fork, Washington. In the ensuing days the miracle recurs, and the declining logging town becomes the site of a pilgrimage of the faithful and desperate. As these people flock to Ann—and as Ann herself is drawn more deeply into what is either holiness or madness—Our Lady of the Forest—seamlessly splices the miraculous and the mundane.

I hate not finishing books - but I just couldn't get going with this one, I could only make it to page 67 before I gave up. The author uses no quotation marks and for some reason that was really throwing me off. There was a lot of God and religion talk and I just couldn't get into it. Hopefully someone else will enjoy this book more than I did.

I think certain books come along at certain times, when you either are prepared to read them or didn't know you needed to read them. This book happened along at the right time.
