Helpful Score: 2
Though being hard to get into at first, Missing Mom turned out to be an enjoyable read. Joyce Caol Oates developes Nikki in such a way that you follow her on a metamophasis of sorts following the tragic death of her mother. In the beginning you learn of their mother and all of her quirky little traits that any pair of daughters would point out..... then toward the end you learn of a different mother that once was. It was a humble story and made me giggle in parts, think of my own mother and giggle again.
