Summary of Wednesday Martin's Stepmonster

Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was very apprehensive about being a stepmother. I knew that the house I was living in was not a normal house, but rather a shrine to the past. The bedroom did not have a door or a wall to put it in, allowing anyone on the first or second floor to hear everything going on up there. #2 The majority of women who become stepmothers experience difficulties, and these difficulties are typically difficult for the women to deal with. #3 It can be extremely difficult to balance romance and fatherhood when you get married to a man with kids. The lack of rules and privacy in your husband's house before you came into the picture was typical of postdivorce dads, who were also difficult to reconcile with romance. #4 A woman who is involved with a man with kids will eventually start lobbying for changes around the house. However, this will cause huge upheaval between her and the man, and between him and his daughter.
