No Way Home

I really enjoyed this memoir about an American family in Saudi Arabia. It tells of the culture shock and the trouble they had getting their visa. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves travel.

From personal experiences, combined with fiction, M S James has created an emotional story in an unusual setting. The writer's 'voice' came through clearly for me . An easy but intriguing read, describing aspects of an English family' s life while both parents work in Saudi for a period in the 1980s. The twist of fate and an emotionally touching ending make this a satisfying, as well as informative, book to read.

An absolutely amazing novel of an american family in Saudi Arabia,. I devoured this book. She knows how to keep her readers in her grip. The story is very well crafted and unbelievably authentic. Great read!.

I enjoyed everything about the book there was nothing I didn't like about the book. I like the setting, the writing style, the plot, the plot twist and the characters in the book were amazing. I would gladly reread it again. I also like the concept of the book.

Judith Chamberlain 5.0 out of 5 stars What a different life! Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 April 2020 Verified Purchase An enjoyable book, easy to read. Enabling me to relive my experiences of a similarly restrictive culture, I appreciated the well organised informative chapters preceding the plot. Once there, I was forever wondering how it would be resolved so it became hard to put down then.
