This is still a favorite of mine and I haven't read the last two books yet. I forgot that this book ended the way it did and I'm so glad the rest of the books are out.

Amazing! I was getting "The Boys" vibes in the beginning, and I love that show. But it's actually not like the show at all. Yes, they both feature super heroes and you're not too sure who the good guys are, and who the bad guys are but that's where the similarities stop.

I really enjoyed the secret identities part that both the two main characters had. It gave you a sense of being all knowing and I had many toe curling moments when I thought one was about the figure out the other.

This was a long audiobook at around 17 hours, but it never felt long because it was so exciting and intriguing.

I had a feeling about the twist at the end but it wasn't exactly my prediction. I'm wondering what's going to happen in the next instalment.

Well I have mixed feelings about this book. I can totally see why people would love it and I did too at some parts but mostly I found myself wanting to finish it already, forcing myself to read it. BUT I do think that it’s not because of the book but because of me. I wasn’t really in the mood to read a fantasy YA book so that’s why I didn’t love it. With that being said there were definitely times when I audibly laughed and times when I was excited, surprised and happy.
Overall good book, wrong timing

It has too many characters to keep track, I'm not a fan of having to go to the character's list to always see who's who and check their powers. It breaks the reading pace.
