Helpful Score: 2
I'm not usually a reader of memoirs and I'll be honest in saying that this book only appealed to me because I am a fan of the HBO series Big Love. In watching that show I've always wondered how women could see polygamy as an acceptable institution. This book turns that question upside down. I guess I never took into consideration those women who were born into this religious institution. The true story that Carolyn Jessop tells is mesermizing to say the least. She's an amazing woman who truly gave an even greater meaning to the word mother than anyone I have known. The things she suffered and endured just to protect her children was shocking. A must read
