God's Not Dead 2~ Travis Thrasher
This is the story of Grace, a history teacher who goes on trial for answering a student's question about the history of the content stated in the bible. When the student tells her parents, they go to the principal and then Grace is called into the office. Because Grace knows she didn't do anything wrong, when the school board wants her to admit she is guilty and walk away, Grace won't do it. Then the issue goes to court. Grace's lawyer is an atheist and is determined to win for her. You also have Amy a reporter that decides to have a daily blog on this issue, along with a few other characters.
I would recommend this book if you like a slow paced story with lots of characters and many side stories happening. To me this story was too slow and didn't get to the point very quickly. I really had to force myself to read through the book. I just wanted to jump to end and find the outcome of the trial. I hope the movie is more fast paced, much of the book could have been deleted and kept my attention.
