20/20 Hindsight

by Marjorie Gibson McCarthy

“I get why you had to have your nose done,” Trudy continued, “there was no question about that surgery; your nose was broken. But I’ve never understood why you seemed to think the rest of you wasn’t good enough. Because, maybe I’m wrong, but here’s how it looks to me: It looks like something’s broken somewhere, and you keep making appointments to fix it, but they keep fixing the wrong things.”

My sister’s words haunted me.
Something’s broken somewhere.
They keep fixing the wrong things.

But only because I couldn't face myself.

Maureen Preston Marquez MacDougall Wheeler Beauvier hasn’t always been a genius when it came to picking husbands. Now, settled and happy, her teenage daughter seems dangerously close to following in her wayward footsteps.
To help her daughter- and finally save herself- Maureen must reveal to her family the thirty year old secret she has barely admitted to herself.

I greatly enjoyed this second novel by Marjorie! This book caused me to laugh out loud (causing neighbors to look at me oddly) and come to tears. Marjorie hit on the humorous points of dealing with our kids and siblings (laughter) and how it feels for them to grow up (tears). Another area I found very touching is the unconditional family love that is done so very well here. Anyone who does not understand how our choices affect our future and the lives of others, should read this. Also, I hope everyone knows or finds a character like Miss Vee Vree. I am impatiently awaiting the next work about this family-I am hooked!
