Nowhere Else by Felicia Davin
3.0
NOWHERE ELSE continues the story of Facility 17 but this time we get renowned physicist Dr. Solomon Lange’s story. He’s been traumatized from his experience in the Nowhere and I found the beginning of this book really interesting as Davin explored Lange’s reaction to being back in his body. Even before the Nowhere, Lange was a loner who pushed people away but somehow he finds himself letting Jake get under his skin.
I loved the way Jake cared for Lange -- he understands Lange’s needs and doesn’t push him. I also melted every time Jake would sweetly talk to his robots and his gentle nature just really tugged at my heartstrings. Lange was a tough shell to crack at first but once we started to get into his head more it was evident how isolated Lange felt and that he wanted to make connections with other people but just didn’t know how. Watching him build friendships with the rest of the Facility 17 crew was so great.
Overall, I liked this one though there were a few parts I found a little slow and boring. But this was probably just a me thing. Ultimately, there was something very soft and sweet about NOWHERE ELSE even though it has a fair bit of angst in it.
