i really liked this book but the ending was not so good. i really hoped they would say what happened to patricks family and how kyra’s family reacted to kyra leaving. i also wish we learned what happened to joshua.

I don’t think polygamy should be legalized. It is wrong to have more than one marriage. I believe there is one person out there for each of us. Please enter me in contest. Tore923@aol.com

People have such strong animonsity toward polygamy for good reasons, due to the horrifying conditions of living on a polygamist compound. But there are thousands of people living in modern day plural marriages, they are living essentially among us. These people do not believe in marrying under age girls, or paticipate in some of the terrible practices that they do on the compound. If all the people invloved in the polygamist relationship are consenting adults and comfortable and happy in their lifesytle, then i feel they are free to practice the religion they choose and live how they would like. I don’t really agree with plural marriage or think it’s for everyone, but they should be able to practice what they would like.

Natasha I just got this book yesterday from the Library and finished last night. So good. Yet so distrubing. Is there going to be a 2nd book?

I think it should be legal only among consenting adults and only if polyandry is also legal.

Don’t enter me! I’m glad to see the books so good – for some reason I’m fascinated by books about polygamy too. It was great to meet you last weekend.
