The whole book the mom is characterized as the "fighter" who is trying to piece things back together, the dad is characterized as a deadbeat/left the family type man. Lo and behold the dad left because his wife had an affair!! That is such reasonable and encouraged behavior!! Yet he is the deadbeat who broke the family??? But she cheated? But its okay because she was in a dark place at the time?? Make it make sense!

an excellent book until page 148: "Then she said, Mom, I did a horrible thing, she was so serious. I asked her what she'd done and she said she'd had an affair with someone from the film, not the director, someone else, I don't know who, but when she said this I couldn't help it, but I laughed! I said, Honey, an affair? thats not a horrible thing....it's not a big deal. It happens! Its life!"

UMMMM??? what???

this book is terrible!!! the writing is so forced and cringy and awful!!!
