The Righteous Audiobook

" Found this book as a 99 cent deal of the day at Amazon & I'm so glad I picked it up. It usually takes me about a chapter to really get into a book. The very first couple of sentences in The Righteous sucked me in & I couldn't put it down. Will definitely be reading the rest in this series. "

" Mixed feelings about this book. Wallace does a good job differentiating the novel community from mainstream Mormonism, which I was concerned about. I like the characters, though they feel a bit one-dimensional -- maybe they'll be developed more through the series. I liked the plot, but the pacing was a little off, and I wish the reader weren't omniscient -- leave a mystery for us to solve. I do like that Wallace set himself up for the sequel, but the story was still resolved, so I didn't feel cheated. "

" This book read like a polygamist Mormonism primer with a mystery sprinkled through. It was the first of the series, and had I read it first, I would not have read the next 2 much better books in the series even though they cost only $.99 for my kindle. There is another coming out in the series which I am ging to skip. "

" Got this book as a joke, turns out has a lot of mormon information. The other parts in it were just plain spokey! "

" Torn between two and three stars. It was entertaining but reeked of Dan Brown, if that's his name, of the DaVinci Code. Read this while flying from coast to coast. A little over the top but I finished it, not sure I'd recommend it to friends. "

" This was a good story. Got it free from amazon prime. I think I would read more of this series. "

" Fairly good mystery but too religious for me. I don't think I would read the next in the series. I bought this book because it was a special on Amazon (cheap). Lots of suspense and I did like Jacob and Eliza but the whole polygamy and Mormon storylines are very foreign and distasteful to me. The author did a good job of looking at the life from many sides, though. "

" Page turning book requiring some suspension of disbelief. Sexist writing that the author undoubtedly believes is not sexist but enjoyable and twisty. "

" I really liked this book. I loved learning about the polygamist Mormon society. "

" Very interesting account of life within groups that practice multiple marriages in modern times. I bought it four my Kindle. Since then I have bought another book by the same author. "

" I liked this a lot. Once I started it I couldn't put it down! "

" A good read, it pulled me along and I learned a little more of the culture of many wives and the "inner temple". I guess it is a series, but I don't think I will read the rest. "

" This was an ok story, onto the next book in this series. "

" I loved this series and can't wait until October for the fourth book. I am interested in all types of religion and love murder mysteries and it was refreshing to have a new perspective than a cop or detective series! "

" Good, different from my usual. Enjoyed this. Some is a bit far fetched but good entertaining fiction. "

" I enjoyed the book had a hard time putting it down the ending left another book to read "

" I couldn't finish reading this book...it failed to hold my attention. "

" I found it difficult to get into this book and did, in fact, abandon it at 20 percent in. However, I don't really like being beaten and went back to it and was able to finish it quite quickly. I found the subject interesting but don't think I will be reading the rest of the series. "

" Interesting plot with some twists - some too many at that. Parts of it even reminded me of Boys from Brazil. "

" An interesting and fun read. The Mormon aspects of it set it apart and kept it from feeling too cliche. "

" The topic intrigued me and now I wonder how much of the lifestyle is based upon fact. I will be reading the rest of the books in the series. "

" I would probably give this one 3.5 stars. It was a fast read. Gave some insight into the Mormons. I will eventually read Michael Wallace's next one. This one was a kindle daily deal-$.99 or $1.99. I probably would never have come across this one otherwise. "

" Way to gory for me. "

" Kept interest moving throughout book. Suspense, action, in polygamist religious group. I enjoyed and look forward to book 2 Mighty and Strong "
