Becoming Sister Wives: The Story of an Unconventional Marriage
by Meri Brown, Kody Brown, Christine Brown, Janelle Brown, Robyn Brown
I was very disappointed with this book. The Brown family has always portrayed themselves as a "normal" family with great love and respect for each other, but this book says the opposite. The sisterwives do not even seem to like on another; they're not even really friends it seems. They complain throughout and do not really focus too much in why they are there: because that's what they believe. Sure they say they have revelations from God, but they do not give us an inside look into EXACTLY what their religion says, which to me, is major since that's the whole reason they broke the law and live under scrutiny.
The book felt like a whining fest, which would've been great for their diaries, not the public eye. They are pretty mean to each other and makes me think that polygamy isn't worth it. I thought they would be more functional. I understand that families fight, but it feels less like a family and more like a business arrangement.
I was also disappointed that Kody didn't have a voice in many of the sections. I understand the book is called "Becoming Sisterwives," but Kody is the whole reason they are all together. Are you telling he has no thoughts on family, being a celebrity and the "sorority" that is his family????
If you want to read about a more unified and organized polygamist family, I would recommend Love Times Three instead of this one.
