Review of The Power of God Changes All
We all face our fair share of challenges as we journey through life. For me, the greatest test in challenging times is my faith. How to keep believing and moving when our circumstances are awful is a never-ending pursuit. This was the story of the Mallette family in the book The Power of God Changes All by Stephanie Styrcula.
Mai Lena is one of the colored girls in a dominantly white school and gets bullied for that. She, however, works through it and falls in love with Jerry, a schoolmate of hers. She gets pregnant too soon, forcing her ad Jerry to get into marriage earlier than planned, and together they start a family. They are Christians and therefore raise their kids in the same religion and as churchgoers. Byron, a former schoolmate, has a weird and untamed obsession with Mai Lena. This unhealthy obsession later completely turns around the fortunes of this family. Find out what happened by purchasing and reading this book.
Authors are responsible for highlighting the various issues in our society, and Stephanie scored excellently in that. She explores the challenges that we go through in our society quite candidly. The author addresses issues of racism, discrimination, teen pregnancy, crime, sexism, and loss comprehensively. She made us feel the pain and the struggles through the experiences of almost every character in the story. This gets me to the next point; the characters were well-developed and relatable. I could empathize with the plight of almost every one of them. That includes Byron, who is a villain in the story. Even though the book is better suited for Christians, the author did not make the story all about religion. There were inferences of faith in the characters' lives, which were presented subtly and inclusively. The conversations in the book also made it engaging and lively.
I, however, had some difficulty reading the book due to its structure and pacing. There were multiple subplots and a huge cast of characters that kept being introduced. While these added to the depth of the story, they also made it a little disjointed and difficult to follow. Additionally, I found the book's length detracting and wish it had been more precise and streamlined.
Overall, I give this book a rating of four out of five stars. It is well-written and professionally edited, as I only noticed one minor error. I deduct a star because of the issues mentioned in the preceding paragraph. Anyone interested in a narrative that mirrors our challenges and celebrates our resilience and strength in conquering them will find the book helpful.
