The Virtue of Sin by Shannon Schuren
3.0
For some reason books about cults always seem to fascinate me. I love reading about the people and their day to day lives. The Virtue of Sin did not disappoint. I was so intrigued by the inner workings of this cult that I did not want to put it down.
I loved reading about Miriam and watching as she slowly started to see the truth about the world she grew up in. My main complaint about this book was that it felt a little drawn out and slow. All the excitement happens towards the end. I wish that there had been more sprinkled throughout the book.
The mystery is what kept me reading. I wanted to understand what was really going on in this community. Just how corrupt did it get? What's really going on behind the scenes? Who's in on what part of it? I have to admit that it wasn't hard to guess a lot of the twists, but I enjoyed reading it nonetheless.
Would I recommend this book? Yes! Especially to those who enjoy reading about cults.
