Mattie Jo successfully and succinctly articulates the building and deconstruction of personal belief systems in her freshmen book: God, Sex, and Rich People. Having been Mattie Jo’s sorority sister in college (Princess Family forever IYKYK) and deeply loyal social media and blog cheerleader, I felt cozy and familiar within her words. I consider myself lucky and privileged to know her (thank you for introducing me and my dad to Bart Ehrman) and was reminded of her vest for life, unbelievable resilience, and wit within her words. If you, like me, can relate to Mattie Jo’s upbringing and/or deconstruction, this book (and her next) will wrap you in a tight hug of knowing and peace.
