Sister J began life as a child star in Hollywood who morphed into a troubled teen star obsessed with drinking and drugs. While training for a role in a Steven Segal film, she learned martial arts and kept up the practice for health benefits.

She had an epiphany and decided to ditch the Hollywood scene for life as Sister J. Sister J and the people she interacts with wonder if she has made the right career choice.

This book's cuteness wears thin after a while. The stories improved once I understood that and started pacing myself (reading them for shorter periods).

FORCE OF HABIT -- VG
Two nuns are beaten, and Sister Justicia wants to know why. When she submitted a blog editorial piece on the 'evils of Hollywood,' she received more than she requested.

FORCE OF HABIT 2: AND THEN THERE WERE NUNS - G+
Sister Justicia interrupts two teens' robbing of a church, which causes trouble in multiples. Sister Sarah (of Sister J's community) wants to toss Sister J for behavior unbecoming a nun. Sister J is getting the hint and is looking for a storefront to branch out.

FORCE OF HABIT 3: NUN THE WISER -- VG
Sister J has opened a homeless shelter in LA. Her main benefactor is murdered, and Sister J goes looking for the culprit because someone at the shelter has been fingered by the police for the murder.

FORCE OF HABIT 4: THE NUN ALSO RISES -- VG
Since Sister J has been filmed on folk's phones and becomes a reluctant media star, the cardinal of Los Angeles has lost his cool. He decides Sister J needs a long sojourn in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. And then robbers hit a church during mass.

FORCE OF HABIT 5: HOT CROSS NUNS -- VG+
This story is about the theft of the Hollywood Cross (aka Hollywood Pilgrimage Memorial Monument), a 32-foot steel cross located in the Hollywood hills. Sister J gets involved and discovers the culprit. We are also introduced to the nuns of Navarone.

FORCE OF HABIT 6: NUN TOO SOON -- VG
It's 2020 in Hollywood, and the government is strong-arming its citizens to wear masks and socially distance themselves "for the good of all." Sister J has a problem with this attitude and decides to give the city some of her attitude.
