The Book of Mormon is actually an interesting read.

In the sense of "this is the basis of a notable religion?!?"

It reads like really crappy epic fantasy novel. Of course you could categorize most holy books as epic fantasy, but the Book of Mormon is really on a different level.

"Lo and behold, I have readeth the bible and shall now write my own book of holiness and stuff"

(In case there are some mormons present, I'm terribly sorry about this, and I want you to know that as an non-religious person who has very little against religions as such, I don't consider the literary quality of the holy writings to be a significant issue. It's just that looking from the sidelines, things relating to religions can look pretty funny. Kinda like sports are often incomprehensible and ridiculous to people who are not into it.)
