You Should Have KNown




Grace is a therapist who specializes in marriage counseling. She has been married to Jonathan for 15 years.  She is totally in love with him.  He is a pediatric oncologist.  They have one son.   When we first meet Grace she has just written a book entitled You Should Have Known.  It is all about her observations regarding why marriages go wrong.  Her theory is that the signs f a bad marriage are there from the beginning.   But then things in her life go horribly wrong.  The husband she thought she knew turns out to be so much different.  Why didn't she see the signs? The book follows her journey of realization and recovery.

The book is psychological study on human nature.  It is a little scary to find out the person you think you know, who is your best friend, who you trust is not that person at all.  Sadly I think this happens more often than I care to believe.  I really enjoyed the book.
