The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings

J.R.R. Tolkien Boxed Set (The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings) J.R.R. Tolkien Boxed Set by J.R.R. Tolkien


My review


rating: 5 of 5 stars
I tried to read these once when I was 16 but the second book in the Lord of the Rings didn't capture my attention so I didn't finish.



Then when I was in my 30's and the movies were coming out I decided to try again and I loved them. Made it all the way through. woot.

I read the 7 volume version. Very good books for people who like history and want a fun way to read the Doctrine and Convents as all of the sections are in there.

In Sacred Loneliness

In Sacred Loneliness: The Plural Wives of Joseph Smith In Sacred Loneliness: The Plural Wives of Joseph Smith by Todd Compton


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
I'm about half way through and I really like this book. The reason I like this book is because it tells the life stories of the women in church history. We hear all the time about Joseph Smith and the other leaders but you don't hear very often about the women who were leaders in the church like Eliza R. Snow who was the 2nd President of the relief society.



It was written very unbiased in my opinion and shares views from both members and non members alike.
