Format:Hardcover
Where She Went shines in part because the subject is so expertly handled in a genre ( the mother-daughter story) that often falls back on stereotypes. Its rare when you find a novel that is true and a pleasure to read. Where She Went, is even a bigger treat -- it spans the lives of two women - a mother and a daughter, but it is never sappy and the story is always original. It unravels the intricacies of their lives and their problems -- seeing each woman as a person even while they are seeing each other in the roles their families have prescribed. The insight and clarity into this family is neither hokey nor predictable. A totally great read. I loved this book and highly recommend it.

I had the honor and pleasure of recently hearing Kate Walbert read an excerpt from "Where She Went," and the reading was so intriguing that I purchased the book. It certainly lived up to my expectations, and clearly this is the voice of a writer with a great future ahead of her.

The main characters of Walbert's book are colorful, refreshing and very imaginable. A continuous flow of descriptive metaphors keeps the reader yearning for more. I very much enjoyed her carefully woven stories of Marion, intertwined with both humor and sadness- a combination that captures Walbert's sensitive thoughtful style of writing. She is a very talented writer. I'm looking forward to reading her next book!
