Ave Maria Convent was meant to form saints. Instead, it had Sister Martha Junior - twenty, emotional, often corrected, and trying very hard to become holy. A talented writer and painter with a wounded heart, Martha carries the loneliness of an orphaned childhood and the fear that she is difficult to love. A young nun in training under the firm rule of Sister Camini Sylvester, the formidable novice mistress, she learns lessons not only in theology and discipline, but grows from an innocent, insecure young girl to a kind, mature sister that realises the strange ways love can hide beneath strictness. Told through a collection of warm, funny, and tender convent stories, this is the journey of young women learning faith, friendship, care, sacrifice, and the truth that sainthood begins long before anyone feels saintly.
