Book Review 1 of 4 for non-fiction

Recently, I was encouraged (and by encouraged I mean cornered and parent pressured into) doing my personal progress.  I'd originally gotten started on it when I first became a Beehive in my old Grovecreek ward, but then I slowly trailed off it, and finally stopped doing it altogether.

Sadly, upon moving here and doing a personal progress interview to find out where I stood in it, I discovered that I was further along in it than most people in my class.  That's when my parents cornered me and forced me into it.

I took off with vigor; doing my best to get the dumb thing over with.  But pretty soon, I was flying.  In fact, by the end of two months, I had only 2 1/4 projects left.  I had two hours of painting to do, and then my reading.  The only project that you can do for Virtue is to read the Book of Mormon which I proceeded to complete just recently.

I asked Robertson if I could use that for my nonfiction (cuz' lets face it, it's not a fast reader), and she agreed, so, here is my nonfiction book review for this term.

The Book of Mormon isn't exactly the best book I've ever read, although towards the end, I did look forward to opening it up every day.  The thing that I struggled with the most was the language.

The language of the olden days has definatley changed over the years.  It was often hard to understand what they were speaking of, ESPECIALLY when they began quoting Isaiah.  Not to point any fingers, (*ahem* Nephi).  I wouldn't suggest this to anyone that struggle with reading or understanding hidden meanings.  Although I found it very spiritual and very good, it was a hard book to get into at first.  I did eventually get into it, as I previously mentioned, but I suggest taking longer than 11 days to read the whole thing, you will probably get more out of it, and that is the sole purpose of the book.
