Is every second wife like Julia Roberts in the movie Stepmom? Lu Klein certainly isn't, and her life is far from glamorous. When she married a divorced man with children, Lu had no idea that she was also marrying his shrewish ex-wife Beatrix. And Beatrix didn't realize that her second marriage would mean welcoming her new husband's wicked teenage daughter, Liv. Liv's mother Roxie, meanwhile, has so many new boyfriends that she finds herself longing for the stable life she and her ex-husband had too eagerly left behind. These 10 interconnected short stories chronicle Lu, Beatrix, Roxie, and their various exes as they take the plunge into the maelstrom of the so-called "blended family." Ruefully funny, honest, and affecting, I AM JULIA ROBERTS offers finely-tuned observations on marriage, kids, divorce, remarrige... and, yes, the movie Stepmom.
