content: The Book of Mormon is not intended to be a novel, so if you are looking for some light reading, this isn't it. Neither is the Bible, however. Yes, there are some interesting parts, and yes there are exciting parts, but compared to a bestselling fictional book, this is a bit slow. But if you are willing to spend some time thinking about what you are reading and want to look at the Old and New Testaments in a fresh light, this is for you.If you want to get into all the arguments about whether the Book of Mormon can be squared with archaeology and other fields of study, you probably want to go tohttp://www.farmsresearch.com/or tohttp://www.fairlds.orgOtherwise, just read the book and think about it. I did and it changed my life for the good.
