A review by rebeccacarter
Random Acts of Unkindness by Jacqueline Ward

3.0

This is a slow-brew type of story. A mother searches for her missing son, insisting he's still alive. No body, no proof of crime is a general sentiment throughout. There's a substory of another mother, forty years earlier, in the same situation. The concept of the story was great. There were moments of high-intensity. But for the most part, there was also a lot of repetition of thought in both storylines. I began to feel like the characters: I don't want to hear this mother talk about her missing son again. Nonetheless, plotwise, the story was interesting.

I received a copy of this book through the Kindle Scout program.
