Stuck in the Middle: A Novel by Virginia Smith

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


I received this book as a Free Friday selection, and it was still free from Nook store when I posted this review.
Sometimes the protagonists in chick lit books are too whiney for my taste, and Joan Sanderson is one of those. She is 25 years old, still living at home without paying rent, and still hurt a former boyfriend married somebody else. She feels stuck between two sisters and stuck between her mother and grandmother; and oh yes, just why doesn't she have a better relationship with God? I was disappointed at some of the judgemental comments made by the characters in the book such as some people just should not have children, and the assumption newspaper coverage of their Christian charity will spread the Word.
I don't think a spoiler alert is necessary to let you know that everything turns out alright at the end because that is a reason people read from the genre of chick lit, Christian fiction.
