Nick Lake's Nowhere on Earth follows a teenage girl determined to help a recently made friend return home. This friend poses as her younger brother to guarantee himself safety during the time he's staying with her family and on the trip to where he needs to go in order to contact his own family for pick-up. They end up storing away inside of a tiny delivery plane only for the plane to crash in the wilderness thus cutting their trip from easy to slightly more difficult. They encounter wild animals, men who want to take them 'hostage' in order to study where the 'boy' came from and even have their new pilot friend being injured time after time.
The book itself flowed really well, like it was really well written and I would love to read more from Nick Lake. I loved the energy between the sister and her little brother and even the way the parents interacted with them both even though they don't realize their son isn't actually their son. I loved the good ending and it definitely gave me heartwarming feels.
Thank you to Netgalley for the read!
