Fraud, lies and an undisputed charge of bigamy are the sins of the step mother. But this book will not get you down. There are wonderful upbeat and laugh out loud funny stories as it covers most of Weezie's unusual life. Current reviews on Amazon.com ***** A Sharp Story of an Even Sharper Lady Louise has written an extraordinary story of an exhilarating life, but at times also tragic. One would have a heart as hard as stone not to be saddened and disheartened by the story of losing her relationship with her father. All in all a fast read with plenty of highs and lows to keep your interest. ***** Easy, breezy "Weezie" An easy and enjoyable read, this book manages to convey the author's clear sense of fun and to poke fun at social-climbing while still making plain her palpable hurt and upset over the heartbreaking way the last few years of her father's life played out. It would be hard to make up a literary villain as nasty as the vain, selfish stepmother portrayed here, and at times her spiteful antics make the reader want to scream, but through it all Ms Ford keeps her good humor intact and her boundless energy and resilience sparkle on every page. ***** What a page-turner You will not be able to tear yourself away once you start this book, so set aside an afternoon to peer into the highs and lows of being Weezie. She's a heroine, and keeps going, when many of us would have thrown up our hands in despair. She writes with an easy, flowing style that leaves you wanting more. Weezie has already triumphed in the writing and publishing of this book. I look forward to the sequel and to learning what Weezie has in store for us in the next chapter of her life. ***** RIVETING This story is so incredible, that I actually "called in sick" from work the day after I got it, just so I could finish it I hope that Weezie writes another book so we all learn the truth about this evil step-mother. Highly recommend ***** Brillant on top of fabulous I was enthralled I especially loved all the anecdotes about PALM BEACH LOCALS Laugh out loud funny Buy it, you won't be able to put it down ***** I love a good memoir....this is an amazing life story I could not put this book down. It is written with honesty and humor amid betrayal and disappointment. I wish I had known Weezie's mother because she created a very resilient, intelligent and emotionally strong woman in the mere 15 years they had together. I hope that we will hear the end of this story. I want the wicked step mother to get what she deserves. ***** Heartbreaking and Heartwarming I found myself not wanting to turn the page to find out the next horrible thing that happened to Weezie, but the intrigue got the best of me. At one point, it seemed as though there was one or more absolutely shocking difficulty happening on every page The step-monster is truly evil it is impossible to believe the extent she went to to make Weezie's life miserable. To know that Weezie's Dad was so poorly cared for in the end of his life was truly heartbreaking. The book makes you yearn for justice for Weezie, but you also learn that she is a true survivor and will be fine no matter what happens. I wish her the best.
