I think I heard about this book on NPR or something and liked the title. It's been on my “to read” list forever and I finally read it! I liked it but didn't love it, as the 3 star rating indicates. It felt like she had originally written it as a one-woman show or stand-up routine or something–it didn't seem like it was meant to be read. There were a lot of jokes that seemed awkwardly stitched in. But they were usually funny jokes, so, pass. I have some Jehovah's Witness relatives so I'm interested in the topic. (But I don't have any Mormon relatives and I'm also interested in Mormonism, so maybe I'm just interested in religions that are likely to eff you up. No offense if you are reading this and are JW or Mormon... I said LIKELY TO, not DEFINITELY WILL.) Anywayyy it was pretty funny and had some telling anecdotes about how effed up JWs can be.
