Okay for a summer read. I would have left that cheating deadbeat husband in the dust. She dragged on too long. Allowed her family to dictate her behavior.
I liked the story behind this book. The woman and her family, it showed the dynamics of how "dysfunctional" loving families can be. I enjoyed the read.
