Under the Banner of Heaven by Jon Krakauer

dark emotional informative sad tense medium-paced

3.5

3.5 ⭐️ This book was an informative deep dive into the history of the church of Latter Day Saints. I think it sort of misrepresents itself by being marketed as a true crime book. True, it does focus on the murders committed by the fundamentalist LDS Lafferty brothers. But the majority of the book is the genesis of Mormonism, which I’m interested in, but maybe not to this extent. All in all, a shocking and enjoyable book.
