Book review: "The Sisterhood: Inside the Lives of Mormon Women"
Author: Dorothy Allred Solomon
Publisher: Palgrave MacMillan
Pages: 244
Price: $24.95
In a nutshell: Solomon, a former fundamentalist Mormon but now devout LDS Church member, is known for her books on polygamy. In this narrative, she concentrates on LDS women, but the book is rambling and uneven, as the author awkwardly intertwines fundamentalist terminology with that of mainstream LDS. When she inserts the names of Laurel Ulrich or Terry Tempest Williams, it feels a little like a term paper gone awry.

This book review seems very shoddy--incomplete at best.
