My Thoughts…
The
relationship between Jackie and Becca was interesting. They are mother and daughter, they seem very
close, and they are going on an overseas vacation together. I saw so much of myself in Jackie, the
mother. The need to control, make
decisions, and question Becca’s actions are something that I find in
myself. It does drive my family crazy
sometimes just as it drove Becca crazy sometimes. As with most mothers Jackie was worried
that Becca was going to follow in her footsteps and make mistakes. But in my mind Jackie didn’t make mistakes,
she made choices that were what she needed in the different situations. These choices pushed her to be the person
she is today. I felt like Becca had
her life together, sure she could have done some things different but overall
she was living a good, healthy, and happy life. I believe this is called living.
The story
itself is wonderful. Sean is a great
tour guide, although I would have loved to have more description of what was
being shared during the tours. I felt
the interactions between the characters were realistic, the friendships
believable, and the arguments realistic.
Although this is the story of
Becca and Jackie, the other characters on the tour had their stories to tell
and I enjoyed them also.
Driving on the
Left is a cute, fun story for someone looking for a love story with wonderful
family dynamics.
