Gamora and Nebula: Sisters in Arms by Mackenzi Lee

5.0

Easily the best of the Marvel books I’ve read so far. I feel like it’s hard to get the same characters that we’ve learned to love on the screen—I’m so partial to what I love first, and usually the books just don’t measure up for me. But Mackenzi totally nailed Gamora, Nebula, Thanos, and even the Grandmaster was perfect. The addition of Lady Death was also super interesting. The plot itself wasn’t anything crazy but I feel like it was a cool take on an age-old Marvel set up that made it feel fresh and fun (plus the Hamilton reference ah). And the ending was totally chilling and I squealed like a fangirl. The set up into the movies felt real and fluent and actually a part of it, where I feel like most of these come off feeling like fan fiction. Not that that’s a bad thing in some cases, but for something I love as much as Marvel, it’s so fun to read something that feels legit. Mackenzi nailed it 4.8/5
