September 07, 2008: This story was good and suspenseful. But there were a lot of aggravating scenes. The main character, Roxanne aggravated me throughout the entire book. Her mental illness is serious and can be controlled by her refraining from the use of alcohol. Knowing this, I couldn't understand why she made the choices she made. She appeared to be a good sincere mother and wife, but constantly made decisions that put her into no-win situations. The book is very suspenseful because it keeps you guessing on what crazy thing she will do next and how she would recover from the damage she had caused. I couldn't help but wonder whether or not she was fooling everyone, or if she was just downright crazy, especially when her best friend came up missing, beaten and left for dead. Her husband Daniel was another fool. He was nice but stupid. With the things he put up with while dealing with Roxanne, not only was he just as insane as she was, but also codependent of her. The children were the only ones who had the most sense in this story, although I did started to like Roxanne a little, later on in the story. It was when she started to take her therapy more serious and make wiser decisions. It was obvious that she loved and cared for her family but just stupid for allowing her illness to take over, which caused them anguish and heartache. Overall, I enjoyed reading this story and I liked how everything unraveled towards the end. I will consider reading the second part of this sequel. I'm curious as to what happens next.
