Beyond Belief: The Secret Lives of Women in Extreme Religions by Cami OstmanMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This ended up on my reading list because I had read an excerpt in some other publication. It was ok. Each chapter was short, just a few pages, and told the story of a woman in an "extreme" religion, from Orthodox Jewry to Mormonism. While I liked many of the stories, the editing was uneven, so some were much more multi-dimensional than others. I applaud each of the women for sharing her story, but wish the writing was more consistent and that a clearer theme arose across all the memoirs.
