paddlefoot55 's review for:

Mr. Nobody by Catherine Steadman
3.0

ARC received from Simon and Schuster Australia for an honest review

I was intrigued by the premise of Mr Nobody - the man with no memory? Let me at it to figure out what is going on.

However, I did find that there was too much other stuff going on as well, when I wanted to be focused on our man.

I switched between being really intrigued by this story, to moments of "what the heck is this all about?"

Whilst Emma's past has a part to play in the telling of this tale, I felt there was too much focus on is. He past and connections could have been summed up in a chapter or two and we could have gotten on with Mr Nobody's tale.

I did like the way his story came out, and I did kinda sorta get vibes of that Richard Gere/Edward Norton movie Primal Fear (am I letting my age show here?)

After the drawn out body of the book, the ending also felt rushed to me, and everything tied up too quickly.

But this could just be me.

I wanted to like this one more than I did.
