[quote=Anonymous]00:18 here. The writing was a bit uneven, and the pacing wasn't perfect, although memoirs have their own rules for pacing. There was so much that was left out, that I was able to add in from my knowledge of Mormons, fundamentalists, and also college and beyond. The book could easily have been twice as long -- I wonder how much she decided to leave out and how much she was unaware of or thought would be generally understood by the reader. Reading reviews, including some from the family and neighbors, also gave depth to the story. So many angles, from the isolationism, private dysfunction and covering up (that I've also seen in families with private abuse and normal public face), and public history. [/quote]
