Mormon Diaries by Sophia Stone
Mormon Diaries is not the kind of book I normally
feature on this blog but I'm rather fond of the author. (See, it does help if
your readers like you.)
This is a series of essays, a memoir of sorts on how Sophia
Stone when stuck between a rock and a hard place full of questions, pushed
back. Smart and well written, you'll be drawn into the book just by reading the
sample pages.
I have to give kudos too to the cover art. At first, I
thought the Christmas ornament was too limiting, but it's the frayed thread
that gives the cover and the book its tension. It speaks volumes.
Well done!
Mormon DiariesBrought up in a religious home, Sophia believes the only way to have a forever family is by following church leaders and obediently choosing the right. She goes to the right school, marries the right man in the right place, and does the right thing by staying home to raise her children. But when she starts asking questions about grace, love, and the nature of God, she realizes her spiritual struggles could rip her family apart.
