If you ask me, it's a feature rather than a bug.
However, the thing that makes Sister Agatha noteworthy is O'Donoghue's attitude towards spoilers. A huge one is right there, just a few pages in: you're following Agatha, a dynamic elderly nun whose life seems to be hunky-dory, until the hunky-doriness starts cracking, and hey! Spoiler!
Thank. You. Thank you for straying from the beaten, boring path and offering me a different perspective.
I mean, I respect the majority when it comes to spoilers, I do. I just don't understand it. Being spoiled is maybe the best thrill I get out of books, being able to know what's going to happen rather than panicking together with the characters--wow. Best feeling ever and one of the main reasons I read.
Anyway.
The story itself is entertaining, all the characters have a great inner voice--yay! O'Donoghue's writing skills are excellent, and Sister Agatha showcases them in a beautiful way.
I couldn't be more pleased, highly recommended.
