Unlikeable FMC and an unusual writing style I couldn't get into By Bbreviews I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.I'm just going to jump into my review here and start with the big problems. I did not like the character at all. Iyemo is spoiled, entitled, and whiny. Instead of trying to make the best of her situation, she blows off her new job, parties and then complains when she gets in trouble. The "why me" song and dance gets old, especially after doing stupid stuff, like posing naked for one of her boyfriends, (yes, I said boyfriends) a man she hardly knows, and then whines when she breaks it off and he sells said pictures to the tabloids. She also has a drug problem, which the author does portray well, but by the time she tries to get her life together, I'm so fed up with her that I don't care if she succeeds or not. The one good thing she does, helping Gomi, hardly redeems her in my eyes, and she definitely does not deserve his friendship or support. I did like Gomi as a character, as well as Leuwa, but they just weren't enough to help me through this book.I also found the writing style to be distracting. In the very beginning of the book, the author jumps from present to past multiple times with no transitory warning, and it throws the reader out of the story. The narrator of the book is also extremely active, and addresses the reader often. I never really got used to it, and didn't find the way it was done appealing. Had the author explained what he was doing through the narrator in the beginning, it would have made the transition much easier from story to narrator.Also as a side note, the plot of this book is basically a really, really long coming of age story set in space. There's a war threatening, but it ends up being nothing more than a plot device that's solved in a few sentences, and not by Iyemo. If that's not your cup of tea, I don't recommend this book for you.

By Jill C I was given an ARC of The Edge of God for an honest review.It’s a witty, engaging story that takes place on several planets that have issues getting along. The descriptions of scenery allow you to be there, right in the moment, with the characters.Imeyo is the daughter of a political powerhouse on the planet Gaya. She was a kind, intelligent child who believed in God and was possessed with keen insight into the plight of others less fortunate than herself. She had a driving need to become an Astronautical Engineer with the expertise to help her planet become more technologically advanced.However, as Imeyo gets older she loses faith in God. She is not even sure that God really exists, but she is sure that if he does, he certainly doesn’t care about her. She is mired in her inability to believe that things can change for the better.She is not where she wants to be, but soon you realize she is where she needs to be in order to make positive changes in her life and the lives of those that she cares about. She struggles with her life choices in ways that are at times painful to witness, but lead you to understand her completely.All of the characters are very well developed; some you will love and some you will love to dislike. The plot is interesting, multi-faceted and easy to follow. There is angst, sadness, bitterness, humor, laughter, science, philosophy, emotional and physical beauty, love, bravery, cowardice and self-discovery all wrapped up in an excellently written book.I would highly recommend this book to anyone regardless of genre preference.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. While the ending was good in some ways By D Miller This story was set in a universe where slavery was a big issue among the citizens of the inhabited planets. One young member of a prominent family, somewhat dysfunctional, gets herself posted to a remote mining planet, where the men outnumber women by some margin. This sets the scene for the first part of the book, where Iyemo keeps adding yet another boyfriend to her little tribe. For me this part went on for much too long, as basically the same thing is happening repeatedly, and I found myself wishing for the story to move on.The story got more interesting in the second half, with the deepening relationship between Iyemo and a slave, and exploration of the character’s self-destructiveness and dysfunctional family life, set against the backdrop of political and social upheaval, as another inhabited planet is discovered. While the ending was good in some ways, there were also fairy tale elements of family reconciliation that I just did not believe in.
