"The Lipstick Gospel" by Stephanie May Wilson

This book follows the story of a college-aged Stephanie.  Readers go thru sororities with her, thru boyfriends and breakups, thru study aboard cultural exchange programs, and thru missions trips.  Stephanie starts out as an ordinary girl who wants to fit in and find her dream boy.  Over time, though, life hits hard and Stephanie starts to feel empty.  The boyfriend dumps her, the friends abandon her, and nothing is certain.  Stephanie sees God as boring and old-fashioned until she finds spirituality for herself in Europe with friends.  Stephanie comes to understand that God is wild and adventurous, accepting and kind.  Most importantly, Stephanie discovers that God loves her just the way she is.  This book is written from a Christian perspective but is an interesting story nonetheless,
