Superheroes Suck

By: Jamie Zakian

Release Date: June 26, 2018

Publisher: Month9Books

Welcome to Gemini City, where super-battles disrupt rush hour, insurance claim adjusters rival rock stars, and villains stash the souls of murdered superheroes inside little children.

It’s been ten years since Shay Sinclair’s parents were murdered by a super villain, leaving she and her sister to fend for themselves. Now at age sixteen, Shay has something that villain wants. Something he needs. After a chance encounter with a superhero in a stairwell, something awakens in Shay, something that could get her killed.

Max Steel has spent the last ten years searching for one particular soul. Now, a coincidental run-in with Shay Sinclair leaves Max closer than he’s ever been to everything he’s ever wanted. But Max hits a brick wall when he goes after her. Unlike other girls her age, Shay isn’t into superheroes. So, if Max wants to win her over and be reunited with the soul inside her, he must get creative. He invites Shay into a seductive world of fame, glamour, luxury, and epic battles with villainous foes.

Now that Shay's in the mix with superheroes and crazed villains, everyone wants a piece of her. A super villain wants to devour her soul, a superhero wants to love her, and Shay just wants to go back to her normal life. It's not like in the movies. In real life, superheroes suck.

My Rating: 5 stars
My Recommendation: Super High

What a epicly fun read. Right from the start, we're tossed into this world where superhero's are normal, destroying the city is normal, and noting is what it seems.

I loved how this book mixed real life into the super world. As we have seen in TV Shows and Movies, there is a lot of destruction that follows a "superhero" around. If you watched shows like Jessica Jones then you get to see some of the aftermath of their "battles". This world not only makes that aftermath a major plot point, it's the driving point as to why our MC does not like them, and wishes to have nothing to do with their world.

I'm going to leave that there, because I don't' want to spoil this freakingly outstanding book. I will tell you that the writing was easy to follow, the world building was rich and detailed, and tone and pace were damn near perfect.

Overall I loved this book, and I highly recommended you give it a change, even if you're not into superhero's, I believe this book will changed you mind.

Happy Reading.
