I love how he continually tries so hard to be a better man. Shocking, I know! (Don’t worry, Tyler, you’re perfect to me.) He’s a fallible human being with the same jealousies and concerns that we all have. Along with their own struggles, there were outside forces and influences that kept me guessing at the path of the plot. But like a good little lamb, I persevered and kept the faith that everything would work out. If these two can’t make it through these daily struggles then the rest of us are doomed. But they are Father Bell and Poppy for fucks sake! The hottest, sexiest, most depraved couple I know. There’s not enough time in the day to get their work done, let alone spend quality time together. They are both exceptionally busy and the day-to-day reality of life has affected them the same way it affects all of us. Tyler is pursuing his PhD in theological studies, and Poppy has been working towards building her dance studio and foundation. Midnight Mass starts about three years after the ending of Priest.

I’d happily start a religion, or more likely a cult, to honor Ms. It’s fitting she decided to write stories involving theology because reading her books is like a religious experience for me. Your basest desires and thoughts can’t hide when a Simone book is in your hands because she brings every emotion to the forefront. Sierra Simone has an immeasurable gift whether she’s writing contemporary or historical, and her characters find their way into the deepest part of you. Tyler and Poppy are back, you guys! My heart and my left-hand could hardly keep up!
