( ) DNF 75% I know right! I was on the home stretch. But it felt like I was looking down a long long long desert road with only the tumbleweed to keep me company. This must seriously be a case of 'this book is definitely not for me', because I have read so many positive reviews. The thing is, I felt like nothing much happened. I loved the super powers and I didn't mind the characters, it's just that the story is so deathly boring. Some of me thought about starting again because I seriously don't know where all this action is that other people seemed to have enjoyed. Oh well, that's the beauty of Goodreads right? Varied opinions. 4.5 stars I didn't realize until I got to the end of this on audio (spacing out while they did the credits) that the reader was Amber Benson. Amber Benson! She did so many different voices, I never recognized hers. She did a nice job. I seem to be hitting a lot of sideways takes on super power stories lately. I don't know if more people are writing them, or if that's just what I keep running into. This was a good one. The story's original, and the powers are different from anything I've seen. A couple of them are more like curses. This is the beginning of a series, but it's a self-contained story, so readers aren't stuck with a cliffhanger trying to force them to continue the series. It ran long, I think because they were developing 6 different main characters. The story itself did not warrant the length. The character development and explanation of powers was well-done, with the exception of a romance that progressed at light speed. I do like the couple and the complications their powers bring to the relationship. The "crocodile" plot line seemed thin (why would anyone take it?) but maybe I just don't understand drug culture well enough. Overall, it was a strong start to series I'll be sure to continue. I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It was a little edgy, maybe a bit too real for 8th graders, but it was a great storyline about 6 kids with mind powers and how they control or do not control these powers within themselves. It was interesting to see this side of the Super Hero tales. I cannot wait to get my hands on the next book about how power can be corrupt, or something like that - I think it is NATE that will be bad or the antagonist in the next tale. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
