Dear Librarian, I’M NOT JULIA ROBERTS is not about Julia Roberts. Let me explain. When I first became a stepmom, I went looking for funny fiction about women in my situation. I didn’t have much luck. Worse, I had to suffer through movies like Stepmom, which, to me, did not tell the real story. So I decided to write my own book. I’M NOT JULIA ROBERTS is series of interconnected stories about stepfamilies. The good, the bad, and the perpetually confused. Booklist says, "Riffing on the idyllic view of blended families presented in the movie Stepmom, starring Julia Roberts, Ruby offers a more rueful, realistic, way-funnier version...” And Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of The Deep End of the Ocean says, "I’M NOT JULIA ROBERTS is such a hoot it ought to STAR Julia Roberts."
