If I Were Me by J. CorrineMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
J. Corrine is a new author to me and this is her first release. The story introduces us to Jeannie who is a bit of a wild child who won't conform to her parent's wishes. The story follows her attempts to be more than just the next in line to the family expectation. This is an easy read, with some amusing parts, sad parts and lovely parts, all of which makes up the life of Jeannie.
Can a free spirit find the freedom she craves?
Jeannie Astor chases after her dreams while her identical twin adheres to the path their parents laid. The wild child seeks relief from her stifling life in New York and will do anything to see the world at large.
After Jeannie makes her escape, she soon discovers that freedom may come at too high a price. When she returns home, she tries in earnest to live up to the demands of her family name. Stymied by rules, rejection, and criticism at every turn, she fights to hang on to what little is left of herself.
When reality and dream collide, will she become someone she swore she’d never be?
