BOOK REVIEWS
"I really enjoyed this book, it made me want to read more and more."-BooksaremyPassion101, 5/5 stars.

Walking and sleeping his way through churchyards to find his new niche in life ~~ A 5 star read
By Richard and Liz on 4 July 2017

This book is an unusual but uplifting read. The author knows how to describe a place/scene so that the reader can "see" it. In that way the book is excellent. Homeless by choice and a widower, Trevor Lonely is an educated man and monetarily stable, yet he chooses to spend his nights sleeping in church graveyards. Why? Lonely? No! Afraid? No! However "an alien sensation was cruising through" Trevor's veins. Will he face it or run?

A rather ungainly man with large feet, it has never occurred to Trevor that he might give folks quite the fright if they meet him in the churchyard after dark! One evening, tripping over a tree root brings him into contact with two shady characters. Do they think he is an apparition? The author manages to make the reader smile as she tells the story in first person through Trevor. This is one of many, many interactions that Trevor has as he wanders through the countryside going from church to church.

"My wife, God rest her soul, thought I needed to find something, so I took to the road to find it." The question keeps going through his mind that if he doesn't know what he is looking for how will he know when he finds it? What guilt is eating Trevor up? Who helps him bring it out into the open? Trevor talks to his deceased wife frequently. Those who have lost a partner will likely identify with this.

Powerful and poignant stories in this book! A lesson to us all that life's interactions can have more impact than we may ever know despite our circumstances. You can still be a help and encouragement to others no matter what life takes you through or where you find yourself. Trevor declares himself to be a Christian but not a religious man. The ending is done well.
