A Daughter's Story

I was a huge fan of Natalie Wood, and like other people, I was devastated when she died. For a very long time I thought that the story just didn't add up. I am still undecided, and yet, I am leaning more towards maybe it was just a terrible accident. It is one of those tragic deaths that we will never know exactly what happened and why - it just did. I think the author did a good job painting a clear portrait of Natalie as a devoted mother, and also about how close their relationship was. I feel that most of the book was about Natasha and her feelings more than anything else. It was an interesting read, but left me with a lot of questions that will never be answered. Suffice it to say that a very bright light was shut off the day Natalie Wood died and I think most of her fans still miss her and wonder what she would have gone on to accomplish had her life been longer.
