The Mirror

She was born beautiful. She had beautiful shoved down her throat from the time she was a small child. Beautiful will get you anything you desire. Beautiful will guarantee you a perfect life. The words echo through her mind as she thinks back to all that s been lost.



She peers at her reflection in the mirror, only to find a flawless stranger staring back. Rita would give anything to look average, to feel normal. No more stares and jealousy, no more whispering, and no more abuse and grief. You can have beautiful!



THE MIRROR will sweep you through the seasons of Ritäs seventy years, and by the end, perhaps cause you to reevaluate your own life.



Long before the final chapter ends the reader will come to realize that beauty indeed comes from within, not from what s reflected in THE MIRROR.
