Bad Mormon by Heather Gay
emotional
informative
fast-paced
3.5
This is a quick read that provides a unique perspective on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the consequences of expecting perfection from members. Heather has a strong voice and shares humorous anecdotes to lighten some of the religious trauma she experienced. The front half is much more insightful and reflective than the back half. I don't think she's fully processed her divorce and departure from the church - she's too quick to latch on to the "community" of the Real Housewives franchise.
