Firstly, I would like to thank NetGalley and BooksGoSocial publishing for the Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of this childrens/young adults book.
4 out of 5 stars.
Would have been 5 out of 5 if the book had been properly edited. There are problems with grammar, punctuation and repetitive words. There were also lots of cases where the author was obviously going to say one thing but changed their mind and ended up leaving un-needed and extra words through-out.
Now let's look at the story rather than all the technical guff.
Good Ole Mike! He has to be one of my favourite characters and his GROWTH! I like it.
This isn't an idea that I've seen before so it was really enjoyable to read.
This book holds great messages for teens and children alike. The story touches on bullying, sexual abuse, bad home lives, honesty, kindness, and many more things that need to be talked about in life.
I pretty much read this book in a single sitting, the first 20 pages was last night and once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down again and ended up reading until 6am in the morning. Whoops.
The colourful beams and rainbow kind of remind me of the television show 'Captain Planet'.
Thanks for a really enjoyable read.

Super-Earth Mother: The AI that Engineered a Brave New World by Guy Immega
Thank you to NetGalley and EDGE Science Fiction and Fantasy Publishing for this novel's ARC.
Five Stars and I don't give that score lightly.
Super-Earth Mother is a science fiction novel with a difference. An A.I. controlled spaceship is created on the moon and travels the cold, lonely expanse of space, searching for an Earth-like planet to re-create humanity.
The A.I. isn't really the main character, it's more like the first narrator: God-like and watching.
I really enjoyed reading this novel. The subject was something that I was super interested in and the writing was well enough done that it was easy to read and read rather fast.
There is one triggering feature and that is the cannibalism. I had no problem with it, but others might.
I don't think there's room enough for a second book in a series, but I would read another book by this author.
I would recommend this to family and friends, and would also recommend to my readers.
