Maisy May by Naomi Kramer

Maisy's mum is an ex-junkie. Her father is unknown. Now the girl with the colourful childhood goes to church every Sunday with her mother and attends youth group with the other kids in her country hometown. Fitting into the cookie-cutter ideal of Christian youth isn't easy, though, for someone with Maisy's background.

A new arrival in town gets Maisy thinking about her beliefs, and she doesn't like where her thoughts are heading. Soon she's questioning every tenet she used to hold dear - and being outed as the worst kind of sinner.

Maisy May is a novella for teens and adults. It is the first in a series of three about Maisy.
