Journalist Juliet Jeske (Decoding Fox News) opens up one of her very favorites from childhood and confirms that she was as astounded and disturbed by the horrific fates of female saints when she was seven years old as she is now. Her stories of growing up Catholic will have you laugh-crying, just like the Virgin Mary statue that visited her small town in Missouri when she was a kid.

Check out these book recommendations based on my hilarious and truly cleansing conversation with Juliet!
