Search - Secret Ceremonies: A Mormon Woman's Intimate Diary of Marriage and Beyond

I found this book interesting - but that's it. It reveals some of the thinking of Mormonism which I hadn't known before. But not worth the negatives of having to read through her very personal private issues to learn of the Mormon Secrets. I don't recommend this book. I'm sure there are others out there that would give you the same information without having to wade through her intimate details.

Fascinating and depressing at the same time. It's very sad to think that this poor woman committed suicide a few years after this book was published. It's not an uplifting book, but it's interesting and I recommend it.

I thought this book was pretty interesting. I had read Leaving the Saints book first. This book fills in the detail that book leaves out. Gives some pretty weird info on what goes on in the Mormon church. Book is basically about one woman's spiritual journey though.

Very informative.

The Mormons have always been interesting to me. Not great literature, but a peek into another way of life.

An eye-opening account of what goes on inside the Mormon Temple. Deborah Laake writes with real candor.....how many women could bring themselves to discuss masturbation with their fathers, let alone write a book in which the praises of self-gratification are loudly sung? (I loved her father's respnse, by the way. Talk about your cool dads!)

Although I think it's sad that the author eventually lost a faith that she once cherished, I did enjoy the book.
