Where Did I Go?: The Personal Chronicle of a Sahm (Stay at Home Mom), as she shares her fulfilling, frustrating and often comical journey from Womanhood to Motherhood.

Where Did I Go? is not a compilation of stories written solely by and for SAHMs (Stay At Home Moms); it is a story for all mothers. Nowhere in this book does it inform you how many grams of sugar might cause a decline in your child's grades, but it may give you something that you desperately need- a reminder of what you have lost. . .yourself. Where Did I Go? is enlightening, suspenseful, shocking, terrifying, heartbreaking and funny, even before motherhood enters the picture! So, for all of you mothers out there, I know how it feels to be unable to finish a sentence, make a telephone call, go to the bathroom alone, get an uninterrupted night of sleep, and most of all; I know how it feels to wake up one day, look in the mirror and ask yourself, Where did I go?

1Not so good  Oct 11, 2008
This book is uninteresting. I find it boring to read and have decided to stop reading it all together. The author's writing style is very unprofessional- seems like she's writing an email. It's too informal and not very specific to motherhood, at least not in the first 70 pages.

2still unsure about it...  Jun 22, 2008
I haven't gotten that far in the book... it just hasn't intrigued me that much. I thought that immediately I would be able to relate but it's very specific to just her situation. I will keep reading it though....and update my review if necessary.

5Loved it!!!  Apr 25, 2008
I just loved this book! It was great to step through all of life's ups and downs, viewing everything through the eyes of a SAHM. As in life, there were things in the book that made me cry and things that made me laugh. Whatever you do, you CANNOT miss the section on "things that used to gross you out...." I laughed so hard I thought I was going to crack a rib! I'm not a mother yet, but this book gave me a peek at what's in store for me!!

5The Definitive Guide for SAHMs and non-SAHMs  Apr 17, 2008
If you've ever wondered if Spalding Gray was reincarnated as a woman, then look no further. 'Where Did I Go?' is an autobiographical work personalized to the point that you know the soul of the author. Although I'm not very familiar with other works by B. Erin Wylde (it was the amazingly catchy cover that hooked me), if they're anything like this masterpiece, this is an author to pay close attention to.

Wylde winds you down a road through her past and present, adroitly intertwining the two. Her life is truly an open book. Her love for family and friends is deep and personal; harm is never displayed or insinuated.

The book focuses on her epiphany of respect for SAHMs, smashing the stereotypical lazy, television-addicted, strung-out Maters, that I myself have been guilty of throwing rocks at. This book would make even the most calloused member of the working class pay homage to those that choose to stay at home.

I don't believe I have ever read a non-celebrity autobiography as interesting as this novel. Only Peter O'Toole's, 'Loitering With Intent', comes close. As I mentioned before, it was the cover that grabbed my attention, but once inside, you will find it difficult to find a place to stop and take a break.

This is definitely a book for moms of all ages, whether at home or not. On the other hand, it is skillfully designed for men who might see this type of work as an estrogen factory, but would dash out for flowers and movie tickets once they've read just a few chapters.

I highly recommend this book.
