wafflepolly 's review for:
The Nowhere Child
by Christian White
There were more twists and turns in this book than your average rollercoaster. You think you're ahead of the various narrators as the story unfolds, only to find time and time again that you were just as off base as they were.
The first one, which sets the premise of the entire book, happens so early on that you know that there's going to be no chapter left unused.
The descriptions of college and university photography students' projects made me laugh - having been there it was very accurately portrayed!
Do some of the themes feel a little familiar? Sure, it's a mystery book about a historical kidnapping. However, it's a solid debut novel and nonetheless brings plenty new to the table.
My only real criticism is that I want to know more of the aftermath, following the final reveal and the previous relationships of the characters involved in it!
3.5/5*
