I’ve seen the non-traditional style worked in, and in this case it was probably just a matter of personal tastes and reading styles. 🙂

Agreed that her gods persepctive was pretty awesome, though!

It felt more like a story being told to me then a story I was reading (I guess the difference between hearing a story first hand from someone and then reading it as an accounting in the newspaper).

I definitely appreciated Jemisin’s different perspective on the Gods and Yeine. I liked them more for their obvious flaws and damages.
