Query: Couldn't get through it

I downloaded this when it was free and just couldn't get through it. Past the first chapter it lost my interest and I had a difficult time finding empathy and a connection with Chris- I just didn't care enough about the outcome to continue. Also, I know that this is Christian fiction but Amy's constant praying was a distraction. I started to automatically skip across any of the italicized print and I didn't think it added value to the story in a thoughtful way. It was too blatant and obvious. I don't understand why Christian fiction has to be so literal, why can't the characters simply act in a manner that demonstrates their values? In any case, this book just wasn't for me.
