Bingo. Not only does she look good on TV, but she is also articulate, likable, and genuine. The typical Mormon interview has always been some old guy from BYU rehashing the typical talking points. You always got the impression you were talking to a church PR guy. Joanna Brooks is a refreshing change.

my wife is just finishing Brooks new book called, "Book of Mormon Girl" and has read parts to me. She goes into all the funny Mormon legends and coming of age with advice from Marie Osmond.

Indeed. Go Joanna!
