Bad Mormon by Heather Gay
Did not finish book. Stopped at 65%.
I’m not sure why I thought picking this memoir up as someone who has never watched a single episode of any Real Housewives franchise was a good idea, but I did it.
Maybe it’s because there’s a high probability this will end up on the Goodreads choice awards memoir nominees for 2023 and I wanted to get ahead on listening?
I found the parts on Heather growing up Mormon, going on her mission, and her married, adult life in the church fascinating all up until this just turned into a whine fest.
65% and there’s no tea or any kind besides she’s in an unhappy marriage, admitted to being gold digger, and loves her daughters
I guess just like any other Christian religion, Mormons also take positions in their church to show their status because everyone loves a bragger who participates in church a lot.
It’s also not well written at all and while I didn’t last until her divorce or the RH time, it’s easy to see she probably wrote this too soon.
I don’t think she’s far enough removed from the church or anything else to offer a reflection and see how damaging some aspects of the Mormon church are.
Anyways, missions from all churches are pointless
