This book is suspenseful and thought provoking. It centers around the Mormon faith, and the mistreatment of women.

Decent read, finished in two days. More interesting for me than the story plot was the inside story on growing up in a Mormon family. Too much drama, not believeable.

I literally bored myself through this book. Instead I learnt a lot about the Mormon community, their favor of avoidance instead of confrontation within their own families and church. This whole might have been a bit one/sided but gave a pretty good impression of the writers antipathy.

All in all the book is terribly boring. The writer didn't invent a main character much likeable and her writing in first person doesn't help much.
