In this episode, we invited Scott Hales back to discuss The Garden of Enid: Adventures of a Weird Mormon Girl, Part Two.


About the book:

Fifteen-year-old Enid Gardner is a self-proclaimed “weird Mormon girl.” When she isn’t chatting with Joseph Smith or the Book of Abraham mummy, she’s searching for herself between the spaces of doubt and belief. Along the way, she must grapple with her Mormon faith as it adapts to the twenty-first century. She also must confront the painful mysteries at the heart of her strained relationship with her ailing mother.

This edition of The Garden of Enid: Adventures of a Weird Mormon Girl recasts the award-winning webcomic as a two-part graphic novel. With revised and previously unpublished comics, it features the familiar story that captivated thousands online, yet offers new glimpses into Enid’s year-long odyssey.

Part one set up the groundwork for Enid, but part two is where things in her life really get into motion. Enid's journey of self-discovery continues as she learns more about her mother's past and as she comes of age, learning more about her faith and relationships with others. The Garden of Enid, Part Two is sure to make you laugh, cry, and reflect.
