So, I love Nick Lake this time around. And I say that NOT to be flip or silly, but because I just never know. I heard so many great things about "In Darkness," so I grabbed it the first time I could and I thought I'd inhale it. But I didn't. I didn't even finish it actually. It never grabbed me I suppose. Then, "There Will Be Lies" came into my world and I was determined to finish it just to see how it ended. And I promptly gave it a 3.
Then came "Hostage 3" and it was like I was transformed into a Nick Lake Lover. I totally dug the storyline and the ending, even though every single other person to whom I recommend this book wants to kill me when they finish! Big ol' 4!
And then "Satellite?" Would have grabbed a solid, resounding 5 if not for the format, which is just not my gig. But the story was all kinds of cool and I truly dug it.
And "Nowhere On Earth" is just like that again. It's a solid 4 with a satisfying story and an interesting story. I also like the way the characters develop, though they do it through flashbacks and forward and all over the place. It's cool.

I never expected to enjoy this story as much as I did.
It is a sweet tale about survival in the wild while putting your loved ones and their needs before yourself.
Easy to read and keeps your attention.
It even made me tear up towards the end.
Would be good for a younger audience as well.

This book drew me into the story effortlessly. The characters, the drama, tension, scenery, and tale of survival were riveting. I finished it in just a couple of days.

I will recommend this book to my teen readers who are looking for something new and interesting. This book has little of everything--realistic fiction, adventure, sci-fi, all rolled into an intriguing story that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat.

This book is pure magic. It fell into my lap at the perfect time. I think this book did a great job of jumping you right into the story but feeding you breadcrumbs along the way of how it got to this point. It is a quick read but has so much soul and love poured into it.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This was one of the weirdest books I have ever read in my life. And also somehow one of the best? Like the synopsis says, I can’t tell you much about it, but the entire premise has the potential to be utterly ridiculous but it’s somehow not at all? This book got me right in the feels, and it also features some cool survival stuff and an amazing setting deep in the Alaskan wild. And family bonds! Just read it, yeah?

Straight up I read this book in May and I STILL think about it, so. I'll throw this at anyone and everyone, and I am So glad it is being published in the US!
