Negative Positive
Title: Not recomended
Review: I had to read this book for a woman's religion class and it was an extreme struggle to get through this book. First of all the author writes an 8 page preface and also a 29 page introduction. She tries to explain why she is writing this book, but it is clear that she is very confused about her Mormon faith. She just ends up straddling the fence on the issues in her book. She doesn't want to upset the Mormon religion but she also doesn't condone their behavior. There are also several errors. The sub-title states, "Six Twentieth-Century Mormon Women's Autobiographical Acts" but in her first chapter she writes about a woman living in the 1860's. I always thought that the 1800's were in the 19th century. These type of errors are all through the book. It is clear that the author did not spend too much time doing her research. I only wish that I wasn't forced to read this book. It is not recommended at all.
Is the review positive or negative?
