Book Reviews of From Housewife to Heretic: One woman's spiritual awakening and her excommunication from the Mormon church
Book Review: An Eye Opener
Summary: 3 Stars
First, I feel I need to disclose that I am a female member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I found this book both to ring true, and to be a tremendous eye opener. It was shocking to hear that other women are frustrated by some of the double standards that are prevalent in the church. (Although the double standard, and the lack of women willing to talk about it is not unique to the LDS church. Although the book starts out slow, I eventually found it impossible to put down. For any religious woman (and particularly Mormon women) this book will make you make you examine your faith in a new way.
