About this listen
Helen wasn't just born the devious vixen of New Day Temple of Faith. There had to be something rooted deep within her to make her inflict and feed off other people's pain. Perhaps it was her own pain that she had suppressed for so many years - an unimaginable pain - that created an internal prison of which her mind was the only captive. But once the demons within her break free, those around her better beware, as Helen surely becomes the epitome of the saying, "Hurt people, hurt people". In I Ain't Me No More, Helen has no shame displaying that she hasn't been saved all her life. Will the divas of New Day Temple of Faith think Helen's worth saving? But more importantly, can God save Helen from not only her evil past; can He save her from herself?

It ain't easy being saved, sanctified, and single. Try being a once divorced, now widowed single mother of two on top of that. Thank God, the Lord built Paige Vanderdale to be able to bear all of those titles without becoming weary to the point of giving up. From the outside looking in, that life looks good on her. On the inside, though, Paige is coveting what so many others around her seem to have, which is true love.

Out of all the divas at New Day Temple of Faith, Unique has to be the most colorful one - she and her mother, Lorain, that is. Never one to hold her tongue in the name of keepin' it real, it's no surprise that Unique has not been saved all her life. It's safe to say that Lorain wasn't born on the church pew either. Let the church folk tell it, the apple hasn't fallen too far from the tree when it comes to Unique.

But first she'll have to go through the pit of hell Mother Calloway puts her through with her un-Christ-like antics.

Not Really Diva
Helen has had a rough life and although well educated makes decisions that don't work out as expected. This is fairly typical of a teenager and young adult, but Helen's baggage tends to escalate the situations she finds herself in.
I feel the story line is decent and E.N. Joy does a good job of showing us an angry young woman. Diana Luke is an excellent narrator, although after listening to Helen's story in her voice, to flip to a different voice at the end was confusing and unnecessary.
Although it's clear from the synopsis of the book that this is a faith-based book, the story has wider appeal than that. And for about 95% of the story, the author does not beat the reader over the head with it. It is primarily used as a vehicle about a way a person can experience personal growth. However, the end ruins all it. Along with a change in narrative voice comes a change in style and focus. Did I consider it proselytizing? I think it was just shy of being so. Had the book been this way from the start, it would not have been so disappointing.
To consider this a diva type series is a misnomer. While Helen is haughty, the primary definitions of diva are not what the book is about. To utilize the word diva as an indication of what the story is, and what the rest of the stories are apt to be, is misleading. So, if you're considering listening to this, be prepared for the approach and the ultimate ending. If that is not of any concern to you, then give it a go.
