Nick is an avid non-fiction enthusiast, while Jake’s tastes usually run more toward late-19th-century fiction and magical realism. Both gave God Girl’s first literary venture the New York nod.

GODSTUFF: GIVING UP GUILT FOR LENT By the time I arrived at Assumption parish at 12:25 Wednesday afternoon, three lines of people waiting to get in spilled down the front steps of the church toward Illinois Street. It was Ash Wednesday, after all, but the number of people clambering to get inside the church on a busy streetcorner in Chicago staffed by the Servite Fathers, a Roman Catholic religious order, surprised me. As I hustled toward the line to the... Read more
