Godless
Pete HautmanFed up with his parents’ boring old religion, agnostic-going-on-atheist Jason Bock invents a new god — the town’s water tower. He recruits an unlikely group of worshippers: his snail-farming best friend, Shin, cute-as-a-button (whatever that means) Magda Price, and the violent and unpredictable Henry Stagg. As their religion grows, it takes on a life of its own. While Jason struggles to keep the faith pure, Shin obsesses over writing their bible, and the explosive Henry schemes to make the new faith even more exciting — and dangerous.

What a great idea for a children’s book . . . but it just didn’t go very well. I was unimpressed by the prose and the handling of the plot and characters. Still a cool idea (basically a bunch of kids start their own religion).
