Marjorie Pay HinckleyCritiques

Darling little book. But it is so much better watching Sister Hinckley live. That way you get a taste of how wonderfully human and amazing she was.

I love Marjorie Pay. I was super excited about this book. However, I have to agree with a lot of reviewers. These letters would make a great family keepsake, but it wasn't the most exciting of reads. It was mostly notes about who was sick, where she had traveled, things she needed to buy, etc.
It was fun to get a feel of her day to day life, but I don't feel like I learned much about her. Her letters weren't thoughts on life or even much about anything other than the mundane day to day stuff.

This was a tantalizing book - it made me want to know more! Each letter just whetted my appetite to know the whole story, not just little bits and pieces. Fun to read.

Helps you understand Sister Hinckley better. My favorite is that she would not do the dishes on Sunday.
