I didn't know this was the second book in a series until I was well into this one, but the story still worked well. I liked it. It had everything people like about Shuri; a little bit unconventional, deep into science, and heavily focused on helping people. Shuri knows she's got responsibilities; she has exams to attend to, training with the Dora Milaje, and proving her worth as a princess of Wakanda. But brilliant young girls have started to go missing and it seems that no adults are aware. Not one to idly stand by, Shrui and her friend K'Marah have to take the matter into their own hands.

Book two for Shuri is super fun and an engrossing adventure. Girls are mysteriously disappearing from all over the world and Shuri is on the case to figure out where they are and why they are disappearing willingly. All of the girls have in common that they are geniuses in their fields of study, which makes their disappearances even more concerning because something more sinister than abduction could be taking place. Shuri is one of my favorite Marvel characters and the young adult series really brings her to life in a fun and unique way. The story has a very diverse cast of characters and a feminist tone throughout which makes it a good read for both boys and girls. Can’t wait to get started on book three!
