Finding Margo – Susanne O’Leary – 1*

This was a book with a bunch of characters who have no redeeming qualities. The main character Margo is married to world's biggest jacka@@. Her verbally abuses her until she has enough and leaves him at a gas station. She hitches a ride into Paris with a horse trainer who was probably the only awesome character in the whole book. When she gets to Paris she plans to stay with supposed friends. I say supposed because they are jerks to her and take her husband's side even though they are supposedly friends. Instead of confronting them or her husband for that matter she just takes off again. She acts like a spoiled child who when she isn't given permission (she's 37) to do something instead of being an adult and saying I'm out of here she waits until the "adults" aren't looking and she runs off. Grow up already.

Spoiler

She ends up having an affair with a Frenchmen who is the watered down version of her husband gets pregnant. When she is a couple months into her pregnancy she FINALLY confronts her husband who is still at a conference (who knew conferences lasted months) where she finds out he's been lying to her (she can't have a baby and an affair) and says she is done with him. Couldn't you have done this BEFORE months had gone by. It was just a bad book. There wasn't one redeemable character you could latch onto and hope they succeeded.
