Publisher's Summary:
After Charlotte's father is kidnapped, she and her mother must overcome their differences and find a way to rescue him in this eloquent, moving portrayal of family from the author of the William C. Morris Award finalist Tell Me Something Real.
In search of the perfect story to put a human face on a tragedy for his newspaper, my dad will fly into the eye of the storm. And now he's heading to Ukraine, straight into the aftermath of a deadly earthquake. I don't want him to leave. I don't want to spend the week alone in a silent house with my mother, whose classically Russian reserve has built a wall between us that neither of us knows how to tear down. But I don't tell him this. I don't say stay.
I think I'm holding it together okay - until the FBI comes knocking on our door. Now it's all I can do to fight off the horrifying images in my head. The quake has left so many orphans and widows, but Mom and I refuse to be counted among them. Whatever it takes to get Dad back, I'll do it. Even if it means breaking a promise...or the law.

Right Where You Left Me was an enjoyable read - one that I could enjoy the company of the characters and the quick paced plot. I think the subject matter was unique for a young adult novel - much like the author's first book. As the book progressed it was fun to realize that I was reading a whole different story than I thought I had set out to read in the beginning of the book.
An absorbing, fast-paced novel, exploring love and misunderstanding between a mother and a daughter.
Please Note: I received and advance reader's copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This did not influence the opinions of my review in any way.
About a year ago, I had the great pleasure of reading Calla Devlin's first novel, Tell Me Something Real. It was an emotional roller-coaster of a book! I loved it. So when the publisher offered an advance reader's copy of the author's next book, Right Where You Left Me, I couldn't resist.
Although these books very different, they both explore the complicated relationship between mothers and daughters. With foggy San Francisco as a backdrop, the compelling story of Charlotte's missing father pushes her to confront her challenging relationship with her mom. If her dad doesn't come home, can Charlotte and her mom continue as a family? The sense of impending doom is palatable.
What I Liked:
Setting:
Okay, I am very biased here. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, so any book set here is one I will be partial to. But the author's descriptions of specific neighborhoods are so vivid, I must assume that she has lived in San Francisco at some point in her life. There is simply too much love in her descriptions to have been made up.
