Perfection A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal
>> Couldn t have been better
I was initially leery of ordering this book as it was listed as used and the price was unbelievably inexpensive I decided given the low price I would give it a shot and if it didn t work out I d chalk it up to experience Well was I ever surprised The book arrived in four days and was in better condition than my friend s new one Perfect as far as I m concerned I will definately be ordering from this vendor again
>> A wonderful little gem of a book
I picked up this book thinking that I was going to get a revisionist version of The Year of Magical Thining which I hated thank goodness it is not
I can t thank the author enough for wearing her heart on her sleeve in this beautiful sad angry funny little diary The story is intimate so intimate that the details leap off the page and bring it to life The language is so familiar and tangible that it s real to me The little details bring the story to life and it is utterly human and relatable I am in the heart and mind and bedroom of this writer and plan to read more of her work I liken this author a little bit to Caroline Knapp and her beautiful haunting memoirs
As the story goes Julie s husband dies at age 44 and shortly thereafter she discovers that he was unfaithful to her with many women during their marriage It might be a typical story but Julie has to come to terms with her own role in the infidelities and her husband s struggles to be a faithful husband Through much literal documentation his struggles and her s are captured on each page
Julie contacts many of the women whom her husband cheated with starts dating and raises her daughter All the while we are intimately involved with her healing process and the people around her the psychology of her journey is present on every page but it s Julie s heart that is most present Don t miss this
>> Sociopath in My Bed
A great read but a little toooooooo drawn out at the end I do disagree with the psychologist s assessment of her husband Not a narcissist but a sociopath
Julie did you really need to take so many shots at vegetarians It makes me think you are insecure or guilty about your own diet
