I’m Nobody The Lost Pages by Alex Marestaing was a strange book. That being said I really did enjoy this book once I got into it a few chapters. I was really lost and confused for the first couple of chapters as I tried to figure out what was going on. I see why they did it that way but it wasn’t one of my favorite things about this book. I am not a fan of books where I feel like I am lost right from the start. In the end I did end up enjoying this book and I am glad that I read it. I also have to say that I loved the message it was trying to get across to people.
About The Book
We’re all broken on this side of heaven, but we can make beautiful things from the pieces. Agoraphobic Caleb Reed is about to step outside for the first time in seven years, meet indie filmmaker Iris Elliott . . . and definitely not fall in love. It’s all because of the notes, the weird and wonderful notes he keeps finding on his front porch, notes signed by someone claiming to be long dead poet Emily Dickinson. Caleb’s parents think he’s losing his mind, as always, but he knows they’re wrong. Something’s going on outside — something strange, something terrifying . . . something beautiful.
Read the EPIC Award nominated novel that critics are saying is “fresh”, “powerful” and “unlike anything” they’ve read. In a world full of anxiety, I’m Nobody: The Lost Pages is a triumphant tale of faith over fear and one that kids and grown-ups of all ages will love. (A London Book Festival Honorable Mention Winner)
