sarahsbookstack 's review for:
Girls at the Edge of the World
by Laura Brooke Robson
adventurous
mysterious
reflective
slow-paced
This was an interesting apocalyptic fantasy set to mirror a bit of a Noah's Ark type of feel.
In this world, every 1000 years there are 10 storms. After all the storms, the world floods for 12 moons and the worry over the storms starts all over..... For those that make it through alive.
Natasha is the flyer who is being set to marry the King. Ella is the newest Flyer, she has a secret mission that no one knows about. She was once branded a Siren, a girl who likes girls. They are branded if caught.
My favorite part were the friendships of the Royal Flyers. These are girls who perform in silks high in the sky. They are guaranteed a spot on boats to survive the flood.... Until they are not. I really liked Ella. She is really smart.
Natasha will do what she thinks is best for her girls (as she calls the other Flyers) until she finds herself falling for Ella.
I thought this was a good debut but not as stunning as I had hoped. But the end makes me excited for more (if there are plans for more?)
