Baxter “God” Goddard may be privileged but that doesn’t mean he’s happy. It also doesn’t mean that he won’t stop letting the reader know what he has and how much he cares what other people think. Zemira Coleman is a hardworking student. What I liked about what the author did here was that Zemira has a voice and our author lets her express her feelings.
The author creates a situation that just may have been a wake up call for God. I knew I was going to get hooked and that scene solidified my fate. I found his perspective on things to be interesting and had me taking another look at a character that I had labeled as a “spoiled little rich kid” – looks can be deceiving.
I was actually glad to see that Lillian, don’t boo me, still has a part in these stories. I’m just waiting for the day… She’s important to this group because she helps to move things along. But power can go to someone’s head and then they start to make mistakes.
One thing these books seem to have in common is that the parents always seem to let their children down. It’s almost like the children are an afterthought. They are a need because someone has to carry on the family name and all that goes along with it. But our author stepped up her game by adding in a disorder that’s rarely talked about and certainly wouldn’t have pictured here but it did make sense.
This was a great way to showcase the author’s creativity. She brought a voice to something that is rarely seen plus you always assume its gender specific. One other thing she seemed to show is that God seems to find his humanity. This is more about an individual in the Elite Seven as opposed to the group as a whole – what makes him perfect for his sin. Our author is very clever because her ending left me saying “what the…!” I’m so ready for my next sin and to read more work by this author.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
