Interesting book about a boy trying to become a super hero. I enjoyed his quests but found at times that things were wrapped up in too nice of a bow. Normally I am a sucker for happy endings but these just seemed to work out too well if you know what I mean. Still a good read and I am pleased that I have the sequel on my shelf ready to go.

I called the "50 page rule" a bit early, but I couldn't stand the relentless bully.

Will pass to the next reader.

Picked up this book at the Calgary BookCrossing July meet-up. Sounds like a cute book and the author is local, too.

Journal Entry 8 by locker-monster at Calgary, Alberta Canada on Wednesday, July 27, 2016
I don't know what to make of this book. It's a cute story about a boy wanting to help people, but the execution was kind of awkward. Mik's parents are way too accepting of all of his strange questions and crazy antics and some of the scenarios don't feel plausible. I mean, a hang glider patched up with a tarp and some duct tape is not going to fly, no matter how high the spot you push off from.

And then Mik's librarian friend gets super powers? I found that to be a really weird plot development. I mean, there's nothing saying that the mystical isn't a real thing in Mik's world, but everything before that was very grounded. An amusing read, but I can see why people had troubles getting past the first few chapters.

Picked this up at the October/Thanksgiving meeting, so thankful for all my friends in BookCrossing. Despite it being a long weekend and their being snow on the ground, we had 11 attendees and LOTS of books.

This one is back with me.
