Relation As Books On the Edge (The Edge #1)
Rose Drayton lives on the Edge, between the world of the Broken (where people drive cars, shop at Wal-Mart, and magic is a fairy tale) and the Weird (where blueblood aristocrats rule, changelings roam, and the strength of your magic can change your destiny). Only Edgers like Rose can easily travel from one world to the next, but they never truly belong in either.Rose thought if she practiced her magic, she could build a better life for herself. But things didn’t turn out how she planned, and now she works a minimum wage, off the books job in the Broken just to survive. Then Declan Camarine, a blueblood noble straight out of the deepest part of the Weird, comes into her life, determined to have her (and her power).
But when a terrible danger invades the Edge from the Weird, a flood of creatures hungry for magic, Declan and Rose must work together to destroy them—or they’ll devour the Edge and everyone in it.

Ilona Andrews officially made it to my favorite authors list. WHY DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG TO READ HER (THEIR) BOOOKSSS!! maybe the hideous covers.Warning: This will be pretty much a fangirling review. "On the Edge" is a traditional Ilona Andrews highball. It is fresh, with sweet and bitter flavours in the right proportions, guaranteed to make you feel hot despite all the ice. :)Hanging out on the Edge - a world between an ordinary and a magic world-was an undeniable romp. All the usual ingredients are presented, but served so well that you simply don't mind predictability, clichés or the incomplete world-building. You just quaff it all
First reread: June 2018.Sometimes you just need something familiar when RL gets too hectic. And since I'm on a IA wavelength lately thanks to numerous rereads at the Ilona Andrews Addicts I decided to stick with it and go for the Edge. Besides i had planned to reread it as buddy read earlier this year but RL managed to get in the way. And so when I found myself stuck making figures for my thesis I just put this on (thank God for audiobooks!) and immersed myself back into this fascinating world.I
☆☆☆ No spoilers and colorful language abound! I have something to admit. I have been refusing to read this book based on it's cover. I know I know, I mean look at all their covers... I know they still contain magic but this one, I just couldn't get past. Then all my friends started reading it and decided I'd take the jump too.Then I loved it. I mean seriously, LOVED IT. A cat boy and another who raised his crazy dead grandpa who eats dog brains all before page five? A place called the Weird and
Dear God, please protect me from the wrath of the Ilona Andrews fans who might read this review. I'm sure I just read it wrong. Hey, I'm a huge fan! But this book did not work for me. I wanted to love it. I just could not connect with Rose or Declan. Their romance was INSUFFERABLE. Horrible. I disliked them both. I get the motivation for why Rose acted like she did toward him, but that didn't make it any easier to read.It takes "slow burn" romance to another level entirely. Like glacial melt
➽ And the moral of this rererereread is: why air forces of puny human countries on this planet have planes and helicopters instead of wyverns and manticores like the Weird Airforce is and forever shall be one of the greatest mysteries of the universe. I mean, wouldn't it be super extra cool to have ruthless beasts like these to transport troops and stuff:Err...Right. That's not exactly what I had in mind, but sure. Whatever and stuff.[September 2018]💊 Ilona Andrews is the Only Antidepressant We
⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱*Might contain spoilers*⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱ Re-read: 05.05.2017 Shockingly, I found myself not liking this book the second time around. I couldn't feel Rose and Declan attractions, their connection. I found the book dragged out, boring and I was annoyed with myself for starting the re-read, but I refused to give up. So I finished it, and now I'm kinda pissed. I really need to learn to leave books that I enjoyed before alone. This isn't the first time this has happened to me :/ Yes, I'm too mad to
