I personally loved this series; I read it many times when I was 14-17. It really challenged me about the ways in which God can communicate with us and about the personal leading of the Holy Spirit in our decision making. I believe it opened up a greater intimacy between me and God via the motif (if that's the correct term) of "ponytail boy". I was also challenged to be more aware of what is going on around me and to God wanting to use me in the lives of others. It encouraged me to take my relationship with God more seriously and allow Him to impact my everyday.

Laura Duffy spotted some new mysterious students at school. No one really knows who they are and all Duffy knows is that their last name is Dayan. Bullies start picking on them and Laura is determined to get to know these Dayan people. Meanwhile, Celeste and the crew go find Wolf, who is the one picking on the Dayans. Duffy gets to know Hadassah and Uri, two of the Israeli kids. Ms. Isaccsen has been helping Hadassah and Laura get to know each other. Both Hadassah and Laura grow in their faith as something unexpected happens to Laura's dad while they're in the youth group. Nama High- Fault Lines is about hope, faith, and persistence.

These books are so good!! They really make you think.I love all of the different characters and how they come together. I also really like the plot line and the suspense and mystery that Nancy Rue brings to these books. This is a great series for teens. I'm sad that there's only one more!!
