Infinity Son by Adam Silvera
3.0
Infinity Son is my first encounter with this author. Being honest, I expected a bit more, especially since the book is so popular on bookstagram. I'm not saying it was extremely bad. It was average, but still nice and easy to read.
The action takes place in present times, which definitely makes it easier to imagine, and has an element of fantasy. It's told from different characters' point of view - mainly brothers Emil and Brighton. Emil is somewhat quiet while Brighton is lively and yearns to get power and fame.
Both of them want to become heroes. Each brother feels like he's the other's sidekick. I wasn't a big fan of Brighton. I think he's selfish and just wants fame and approval from others. He's often jealous of his brother when everyone's attention is on him.
There's a lot happening at the very end of the book but I thought the ending was quite predictable. It's not a fantastic book, but I think it's worth reading anyway.
