celestelee 's review for:
The Nowhere Child
by Christian White
Not grand but interesting enough to hold my attention. The ending however felt thrown together as though the author realized he needed to come up with something to end it all. The situations that the characters found themselves in might have been a bit of a stretch throughout the book but the ending was just over the top. An ex-con with a toddler in rural America managed not only to care for said child but to work enough (who kept kiddo?? ) to save up the exorbitant amount of money needed for fake passports and identity changes, money to travel to another continent, establish work/housing/childcare there, and then meet the love of his life and live fairly happily with his daughter convinced that he is her step father and his wife is her real mother. Huh??? I do plan to read another book by this author and give him a second chance as this was his debut novel. Perhaps he will be like fine wine.
