One of my goals for 2022 was to read more non-fiction. Enter: Nowhere Girl by Cheryl Diamond. I was at Barnes & Noble looking for something to read while I sat in yet another hospital waiting room as they ran test upon test on my father (but that’s a story for another day). I was sucked in by the cover of Nowhere Girl and added it to the stack of books I left the store with.
Cheryl Diamond spent her childhood adventuring around the world with her family. Along with her parents, her older brother, and sister, she hopped from country to country and continent, not settling in any one place for more than a short period of time.
It all starts to fall apart when in her teens, when Cheryl, who has lived her life under dozens of assumed names, begins to fear those she should trust most of all: her family. She discovers that her family is actually outlaws on the run and it’s only a matter of time before her identity is burned and she has no idea who she really is. Cheryl is left without proof of identity or what country she is actually a citizen of, making her the Nowhere Girl.
