The book generate good discussion and gave you some insight on the life of Polygamist.

Was glad this was a shorter book, as it made us feel helpless and frustrated, but couldn't stop reading it.

Kyra is a thirteen year old member of a religious community who refer to themselves as "The Chosen Ones." Early on we learn that Kyra has been promised to her sixty year old uncle who is known for mistreating his other wives. In spite of her efforts to get out of this arranged marriage, she seems to be destined to marry this man whom she despises. There are many disturbing things that happen in the story. When the book ended, I was definitely left wanting more. Our whole book club enjoyed the book. Although I'm not sure it gave us all that much to talk about. It is written for a teen audience, and it is apparent in the writing. I did feel like this was a "surface" story and there is much more that could have been done with the story. However, due to the intended audience, it was probably appropriate to remain a little superficial in regards to many of the relationships and lack of character building and follow through. Overall a decent book.
