Title: Where's Sandra?
Author: J.C. Petersen
Genre: Contemporary
Published: September 21, 2013
I received this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I think this book was supposed to be about a woman and how she related to her parents. The plot and its intentions were not completely clear.
The main character's name was Sandra. She went from place to place and took the easiest path. She was unable to stand up for herself and then blamed outside influences for the outcomes. Tom, her father, didn't listen to his wife or daughter. He thought he knew what was best and used his knowledge to make decisions. He also flirted indiscriminately with every female he came across throughout the story. Sandra's mother was named Jenny. She was dissatisfied, bored, loud and liked to get her way. When things didn't go as she expected them to she would get a migraine. I never felt really connected with any of the characters.
The transitions between the scenes were abrupt. I would be thrown out of the story each time one would happen. It actually got better when I started speed reading.
Honestly the best part of the book was Sandra's two dogs, Tom and Gerry.
Overall I gave this book 2 stars out of 5.
