So if you had ever asked me what a stereotypical story about an abusive relationship was I'd say it's this book. Minus the fact Lina falls in love with a movie star, that's far fetched. 

Either way this story was fine. It's an important one and a reality for a lot of women, sadly their story doesn't always end so perfectly. 

Kind of wish we got more insight to life after she got the divorce and how her kids adjusted.
