Thank you, honestly; but I wouldn't feel right asking for such a balm. (Whenever I get embarassed I end up talking like this ) The only real thing stopping me from getting my own copy is lack of effort, something no one else should pay for.

As was mentioned earlier, you can order for free through mormon.org. Of course, you'll have missionaries knocking on your door after that. If you don't want that, there are now copies available for purchase in the religious section of big box book stores such as Barnes and Noble and Borders. Costco has been known to carry them as well.

I read it when I was given a copy by some missionaries that used to come to my house.
I found it, in some ways, an easier read then the Bible.
Rather than a disparate assemblage of articles written over hundreds (thousands?) of years, by many, very different people, The Book of Mormon is pretty much a unified, complete historical narrative. There is plot and character development -- and my copy had some really nice illustrations!

Why? To you it would just be another book, so why not read it?

I have a Book of Mormon sitting on my religious texts shelf. But I haven't had a reason to read it yet. I suppose I would for a class, but to be honest I can't see me having time otherwise.
