I'm over half way through now, but it's long for me. I absolutely love parts off and on, but it's taken me over a week to read it so far and that's long for me. I still like it, though.

I do get a little frustrated when people think that the main LDS church still practices polygamy.<br/><br/>Anyway, I am interested in this one! I've always been fascinated by Brigham Young and his life--I've even been to his house in downtown SLC a few times. And especially interested after finding out recently that my great great grandfather took a second wife back when Utah was still being settled.

It does seemt he general opinion is good on it though.<br/><br/>Veens- Thank you Veens! Yes, it was an interesting portrayal for sure. <br/><br/>bermudaonion- I am glad you liked it, I have seen several FLDS books writen about lately, maybe on your blog! :) I think this one was about as much as I could handle though. I am really glad you enjoyed it.<br/><br/>madeline- I hope you enjoy it!!<br/><br/>trish- yeah, I knew this would be an issue, since I knew several of you are/were LDS. It is hard to see one's beliefs misjudged. I even was thinking of that in writing the review, hope I didn't bother anyone. I tried not to, but it is hard when you don't know what could be hurtful.Thanks so much for your comment, and your insight!!!! <br/>Do you think you'll read this one?<br/><br/>Anna- Yes, I know you will have an excellent tour stop!! :) karen- I think it depends on how interested you are on the topic :) I cannot say either way, because it really comes down to taste.
